Forced Marriage [Cultivation]

According to the "Double Cultivation Law of the Whole World", Gu's Baitang and Li's Tsing Yi, would you two be willing to become a dual-cultivation couple today, to accompany each other, be loyal to each other, and never leave? "

"I am willing."

"I...will."

"I announce that the two of you will officially become a Taoist couple today. The road to immortality is long, and I hope that you two will hold hands and walk together through wind and rain..."

A flash of lightning pierced through the black night.

The person on the bed sat up in convulsions, his eyes were empty, his face was pale, the hair on his temples and the single clothes on his body were all wet with sweat.

Maids or guards walked by outside the courtyard, whispering through the rain curtain and the door, and passed into the ears of the people on the bed.

"Ah, this is the first spring rain this year, it's thundering..."

The sound of the rain grew louder, completely obscuring the vague human voice, leaving only the rumbling downpour.

Jiang Suxing vaguely remembered that the first time he woke up in this world was the same situation.

Dreaming of Gu Baitang's wedding that he had never seen in his previous life, he opened his dry eyes in a chaotic heavy rain, and his whole body was washed empty by the heavy rain, and he couldn't think of anything in his mind.

He had hoped that it was just a dream.He also clearly knew that what was supposed to come would always come, but for some reason, it came so quickly.

Jiang Suxing dragged a white jade soft robe and got out of bed, opened the window and looked at the courtyard.Now it is April, and the spring is waning.It was raining at night outside the window, even though I had a brocade green robe on my body, it still couldn't stop the cold dew.

He sighed.Suddenly, he saw a white shadow walking towards him in the rain curtain.His eyes lit up at once.

Gu Baitang held up an oil-paper umbrella, dressed in white, with black hair hanging from his waist, and had a tall and straight figure.From a distance, it looks like a dream, but when you get closer, you can clearly see that soft flowing water is hidden under a layer of frost in those jet-black pupils.

Jiang Suxing leaned against the window, looked at the person in front of him and couldn't help but smile: "It's so late, why are you here?"

Gu Baitang ignored him, pushed open the door, put the wet umbrella on the threshold, and poured himself a cup of hot tea in the room.

Jiang Suxing went to close the door, and when he turned around, he saw that the ends of Gu Baitang's waist-length black hair were already wet from the rain, and the hem of his clothes was also soaked in water.

"This rain is really heavy." Jiang Suxing took clean clothes from the package again, and brought them to Gu Baitang to ask him to change again.

Gu Baitang waved his hands, sat down cross-legged to the side, brushed his long clothes to let it dry naturally, the ends of his black hair were still dripping wetly around his waist.

Jiang Suxing wrapped it up with a dry cloth and wiped it for him, Gu Baitang lowered his eyes, and the room was silent for a while.After a while, he asked aloud: "Su Xing, do you have something on your mind to hide from me?"

Jiang Suxing paused when he wiped his hair, "Why did you say that?"

Gu Baitang said: "Why did you look like that when you saw Beiyuan tonight?"

Jiang Suxing laughed softly and said: "I was frightened. I grew up in Yuping, and I have never seen a demon cultivator, let alone a demon cultivator killing people. The scene tonight has scared me out of my wits." .It’s just that I’m too embarrassed to reveal it in front of all of you. So I don’t say anything.”

Hearing this, Gu Baitang's expression relaxed a little, and said: "So it's this one. But speaking of it, what happened tonight is really strange. It's also the first time I've encountered so many demon cultivators, and it's still in Changle, which is far away from the realm of cultivation. Is it true? Did we recruit them?"

Gu Baitang had already believed Jiang Suxing's words that he was afraid of demon cultivators, so he naturally shifted his attention elsewhere.

Jiang Suxing said: "It's possible. The murder happened in the yard next to us. Maybe those demon cultivators found the wrong place."

Gu Baitang said: "But why are our group being targeted by the demon cultivator? What are their plans?"

The wet hair had been wiped almost dry. Jiang Suxing walked over and put the wet handkerchief on the shelf. In front of him was an oil lamp. Seeing from Gu Baitang's perspective, Jiang Suxing's whole figure was blurred by the shadow of the lamp. slender.

"Probably, he's staring at Zhou Hui." Jiang Suxing took off his robe and put it on the hanger, casting a faint silhouette on the window paper from the profile.

Hearing Zhou Hui, Gu Baitang's expression froze and his brows furrowed.

Jiang Suxing turned around, and seeing his expression, he knew that he was depressed again.Then he smiled and said, "Brother Gu, the good night is over halfway, why don't you come to bed?"

Gu Baitang glanced at him, but he lacked interest and didn't want to play around with him.He just said: "I'm just bored and want to come over to see you. This is more serious. Go to bed and rest."

"how about you?"

"I'll sit here, it's fine."

Hearing this, Jiang Suxing went to bed and lay down on his side.Although Gu Baitang was sitting there cross-legged, his figure was not as upright as in the past, but he was leaning slightly, leaning on the desk beside him with one elbow, propping his head, his black eyes deep in thought.

Seeing that Jiang Suxing was lying down, he flicked his index finger to extinguish the oil lamp on the table.

The room was pitch black, but Gu Baitang could still be clearly felt sitting there.Jiang Suxing yawned, turned over, and fell asleep peacefully.He couldn't sleep well in the first half of the night anyway, and he had no more dreams in the second half of the night.

After sleeping soundly all night, when I woke up the next day, it was already time, and the sun was already rising outside.In the past, when I was in Xicheng for at least a few hours, I started to repair early before dawn.It was rare to have this opportunity to sleep until he woke up naturally, Jiang Suxing was attached to the temperature of the bed, his whole body was weak and he was too lazy to move.

Gu Baitang had already left, and only the clear sunlight came in the room.Jiang Suxing was lying on the bed, after the tossing and palpitations in the first half of last night, he had recovered his peaceful state of mind at this moment.

What should come can never be avoided. Since there is no way to avoid it, we must face up to it.

He thought at this moment, if this Li Qingyi was really the Li Qingyi who double cultivated with Gu Baitang in his previous life, then this person could never be just a simple actor.In the previous life, Li Qingyi and Gu Baitang met at least ten years later. According to this calculation, if Li Qingyi and Gu Baitang can double cultivate ten years later, then Li Qingyi's cultivation level at this time is at least close to the golden elixir stage, or even in the golden elixir stage. period or more.

Why is a monk whose cultivation base is close to the Golden Core Stage being an actor?In any case, Li Qingyi is definitely not a simple character.Could it be... those demon cultivators last night were actually targeting Li Qingyi?

Thinking of this, Jiang Suxing shuddered and sat up from the bed.After getting dressed and washing, he opened the door and went to the front hall for dinner.

Everyone got up late today, when Jiang Suxing left, Qin Zun, Lu Jiuyou and others had just arrived.

Lu Jiuyou slumped on the chair and called out: "Usually I look forward to taking a leisurely errand out to have some fun. As a result, I just arrived in Changle yesterday and was disturbed by the demon cultivators in the first half of the night, and thunder and rain in the second half of the night. Didn't sleep well. I still have to look for Zhou Hui's reincarnation today, so I don't have the strength."

Jiang Suxing walked in, wearing a black long gown, with long hair reaching his waist, he looked like a handsome young man.

"We have three months to go sightseeing in Changle, isn't Senior Brother Lu afraid that there won't be enough time for fun?"

Lu Jiuyou smiled, then looked away to talk to Zhu Bishi.During this trip, Lu Jiuyou didn't seem to like Jiang Suxing very much, and he didn't know if he had a problem with him, or he couldn't get used to the fact that Jiang Suxing and Gu Baitang lived together.

Jiang Suxing didn't care about this, he smiled lightly and made tea for breakfast by himself.

Elder Yan came over from time to time, followed by Gu Baitang.Due to the sudden appearance of the Demon Cultivator last night, everyone in Xicheng was divided into two groups: Elder Yan took Gu Baitang, Jiang Suxing, Zhu Bishi, Lu Jiuyou, and two other disciples of the master of ceremonies to meet Zhou Hui's reincarnation, while the rest followed Qin Zun. Investigate the whereabouts of Moxiu.

Asking Gu Baitang and Zhu Bishi, two people who are inextricably linked to Zhou Hui, to find Zhou Hui's reincarnation, this Elder Yan really wanted to stop drinking.It is not true to see Zhou Hui's reincarnation, but it is reality to explore Gu Baitang and Zhu Bishi.This is a good strategy to kill three birds with one stone.

With the addition of Jiang Suxing, the four of them walked together, and they all had a mirror in their hearts, they just kept their expressions on.

The disciples of the West City used to be dressed in white clothes with their hair tied in a bun, dressed like a well-behaved monk.When I went out today, I changed my clothes because it was for fun.As the saying goes, a man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. At this moment, everyone in the West City has changed into brocade clothes. The handsome men and women are all charming and suave.A large group of people went out, attracting the attention of the whole city.

Only Gu Baitang is still in Xicheng.A long sword in white clothes and a bun made of jade, but without a blue forehead.Han Yue's eyebrows were like frost, Shuo Ye's eyes were like ice, with deep eyes, serious and serious.It was this serious appearance that became the most eye-catching person in this group of people.

The folk customs here are tough, and the women are extraordinarily bold.They had only walked one street, and five or six women came up to deliver flowers.The other disciples were so scared that they all wanted to run away, even Jiang Suxing received two flowers.The strange thing is, even though most of the girls all over the street were focused on Gu Baitang, none of them dared to go forward to hand flowers.

"What are you doing with these? You don't mind taking your hands." Gu Baitang looked at Jiang Suxing, and his face was not very good when he spoke.

Jiang Suxing returned the flower to the girl, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid of him too, you can hand it over yourself."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran behind Gu Baitang to stand there.The two girls smiled shyly at first, and when they met Gu Baitang's eyes, they immediately lowered their heads and shrunk their necks, looking trembling.

Gu Baitang walked away expressionlessly, walking all the way, there were almost fewer people.Jiang Suxing caught up with him in two steps, and pushed him, "Why are you so aggressive just now, scaring the girl."

Gu Baitang didn't speak, Elder Yan coughed from behind, Jiang Suxing immediately walked away from Gu Baitang, and walked to the end of the line.

From time to time, everyone came to a grand and imposing house. The two stone lions in front of the door and the dragon patterns carved on the colonnade all showed the revered status of the owner of the house.Looking up at the family name, as expected, there are three words "Shizifu" engraved in gold on the plaque.

It is the destination of this trip.

The eldest son of Changle "Rui" is just an ordinary mortal with a limited lifespan.The leisurely son of a prince of leisure, is now 30 years old.There are several beautiful wives and concubines in the mansion, and hundreds of servants and attendants.I don't lack anything, but I just love metaphysics, but I can't always ask for it.

Although there are nine self-cultivated immortals in Changle, all of them are thousands of years old.It is difficult for ordinary people to cultivate immortals, and the people of Changle live in a prosperous and prosperous life. Who would like to go to Qingxiu?Although this Shi Zirui does not lack the way to cultivate immortality, he is also reluctant to let go of this prosperous age, not to mention that he is a lover. It is said that there are several beautiful wives and concubines in the mansion, all of which are his beloved beauties.Everyone said that they only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals, Shi Zirui, who has no worries about food and clothing and only cares about enjoying himself, has gradually put aside the matter of cultivating immortals.

Hearing that the Xicheng mission came to visit the mansion, Shi Zirui was naturally happy, and ordered everyone in the mansion to bathe and burn incense the night before.The next day, a vegetarian banquet was prepared early to welcome the cultivators from the west city.

Since they are here to visit, everyone in Xicheng has packed their outfits.Visit Shizi Mansion, chat with Shizirui, and have lunch at noon.During the banquet, we exchanged cups and cups, chatted about the world, learned about the past and discussed the present, without going into details.

It wasn't until sunset on the western mountain that the people in Xicheng left from Shizi Mansion.

"Look, this Shi Zirui is the person we are looking for?" When they returned to their residence, Qin Zun and the others hadn't returned yet.Elder Yan sat down to drink tea, looked at Gu Baitang and Zhu Bishi and asked.

Gu Baitang's face was solemn, and he stood by the door without saying a word.He was always like this during the banquet just now, as if since coming to Changle, Gu Baitang has become more irritable.After several conflicts with others, he simply refrained from speaking.On weekdays, he is full of hostility, and his whole body exudes the signal that strangers should not get close.

Zhu Bishi said: "It's hard to see for sure. You have to ask the masters of the master of ceremonies to do it, and ask the soul to find the root, so that we can find out. But Zhou Hui has been reincarnated for 300 years, and if you ask the soul, the trace of the soul is still very vague. .Besides..."

She lowered her head and sighed, she was charming and extremely gentle.

"The disciples never understood that Master Zhou Hui's soul has been reincarnated for 300 years, and he is already a different person. This Shi Zirui is obviously an ordinary person. He doesn't even have a spiritual root. He will turn into a cup after living for a hundred years. Huangtu. Even if we confirm that Shi Zirui is the reincarnation of Zhou Hui's soul, so what? Since it is a previous life, all the grievances and grievances should have been written off..."

Elder Yan glanced at her, put down the teacup in his hand, and said: "The soul of others may have disappeared in smoke after 300 years, but Zhou Hui's soul will not; the soul of others will become a completely different person after 300 years of reincarnation. All kinds of grievances and grievances with the previous life can be written off, but Zhou Hui's soul can't. If Shi Zirui is just a simple ordinary person, it can only explain one possibility, Zhou Hui's soul is not in him. What we are looking for, Someone else."

After saying the last sentence, Elder Yan's eyes fell on Gu Baitang.

Jiang Suxing walked over without a trace, and said with a smile: "It's too early to say these things now, I think we should find an opportunity to knock Shi Zirui unconscious, tie him into a dark room, and let's talk about how to do it."

The other two Master of Ceremonies disciples looked at each other in dismay: "Knock Shi Zirui unconscious? Bind him to a dark room? What kind of method is this? We can't do it."

Elder Yan pointed at Jiang Suxing and said: "You came up with this idea, you go."

Since Elder Yan had already assigned, Jiang Suxing had no choice but to follow.He was lifting a rock to shoot himself in the foot, he wanted to rescue Gu Baitang, but ended up putting himself in it.

With that said, night has fallen.Several people asked Ann to leave, and they were going to go back to their rooms to rest.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw a blue figure walking towards me.

Jiang Suxing walked at the back, didn't look carefully, only vaguely saw the man's green clothes like water and black hair like ink.

But Gu Baitang, who was walking in the front, stopped suddenly.Zhu Bishi, Lu Jiuyou and the others also stopped, and turned to look at Jiang Suxing, both of them had strange expressions on their faces.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Suxing bypassed the two disciples of the Master of Ceremonies and came to the front.

In the night, the man was holding a dim yellow lantern, his brows and eyes were gentle under the light and shadow, his appearance was handsome, and there was a trace of charm in his delicacy.

Just when Jiang Suxing felt that this person's face was inexplicably familiar, he saw that person walking straight up to Gu Baitang, and opened his mouth to call: "Benefactor."

Gu Baitang stared at his face, and asked out loud for the first time today: "Who are you?"

The sound was hoarse and low, and the hostility around him seemed to be a little bit heavier.

The man was not afraid, Zhanyan smiled, his slender black eyes were full of smiles, "Slave Li Qingyi, did your benefactor forget? We just met last night."

Gu Baitang didn't talk to him anymore, but turned his head with a very troubled and unbelievable expression.It seemed to be very difficult to ask: "Su Xing, who is he?"

When Li Qingyi and Jiang Suxing looked at each other, both of them were shocked.

Last night was chaotic, Li Qingyi was wearing heavy makeup again, and no one could see clearly.It wasn't until this moment that his true face was revealed to everyone.

Looking at Li Qingyi's face, Jiang Suxing felt that something was wrong, but he didn't realize what was wrong for a long time.

Until Lu Jiuyou who was on the side exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Patriarch Jiang, is this actor your twin brother? I almost didn't tell the difference, but Patriarch Jiang was clearly walking behind me, why did he suddenly change his clothes and pick up his clothes?" A lantern is coming across from us!"
