Twilight War

"My lord is dancing the imperial dance?" Shen Sanshi put down the sapphire chopsticks in his hand and looked up at the young man holding feather who suddenly appeared at the dinner party.

Huangwu is a more solemn and solemn dance than Yuwu.

"I just dance casually." Huangxuan Jin leaned forward and bowed to Shen Sanshi, with a slight indifferent smile on his face, "But if you hold a white feather and dance, it's called Yuwu, and if you hold five feathers, it's called Huangwu. .Then I danced the imperial dance."

"I thought young master is someone who understands etiquette." Shen Sanshi looked at him with a suppressed smile.

"The so-called courtesy is just how many kowtows you have to do on this road, and how many times you have to bow down." Huangxuan Jin still smiled.

"The so-called imperial dance was just a gathering of people in the Yao and Shun era. They picked up the beautiful feathers around them, and then they were happy, so they danced." The young man spread his sleeves, as if The feather-crowned man who danced in the era of fragrant grasses.

"My lord is quite similar to Huangxuan Qiechen's drunken reception of Yunting." Shen Sanshi laughed again.

Back then, Huangxuan Qiechen was dressed in moon-white cloud brocade and walked among the important officials in scarlet clothes. He drank wine at the Osmanthus banquet and drank with beggars from the rivers and lakes.

That is the young man of the Huangxuan family, they have known the most solemn etiquette, and they have performed the most solemn sacrifice.But if those rituals stand in their way a little bit, they don't mind cutting through all the complicated rituals in front of them just like cutting through the white jade statue with a knife.

"I'm me after all, what have I got to do with the Huangxuan family." The young man sneered again, "I'm going to Jinling Li Jin."

"The Li family in Jinling? I've never heard of a big family named Li in Jinling, but it's true, under the prestigious name of the Huangxuan family, other noble children have also been overshadowed." Shen Sanshi waved his hand to the housekeeper, "Set up a seat for Mr. Li. "

Huangxuan Jin was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and said: "Yu Jinling also had a poor reputation when he was young, and everyone called me Mr. Jin, so you can also remember him."

"Okay, then set up a seat for Mr. Jin."

He turned around, and there were thousands of lights on the dome of the boat, and Vehipel looked at him, his eyes were too deep to be seen under the lights.

The dancer named Langu bowed and retreated, white dancing sleeves flashed across his eyes, he leaned forward to return the salute, the wind blew, the lights in the hall were low, and in the afterglow of the flickering lights, Vichypel slowly raised his glass to him , eyes like blue sky.

The second half of the dinner party was full of erotic songs. Originally, Lan Gu danced the feather dance in such a place because she was too shy. The dinner party was full of wealthy businessmen. How many of them had actually seen the feather dance?

The butler may have seen the dissatisfaction of others, and hurriedly ordered the musicians in the music workshop to play a few erotic songs that were widely sung in the workshop.The moon dew-like colored gauze on the women's bodies was covered with a thin layer of sweat on their waists and limbs, and everyone at the banquet became drunk, and the lotus lanterns were blown by the sea breeze, and they all forgot what happened just now under the falling light and shadow. Yu Wu, what a young man holding a feather.

Huangxuanjin stood up and walked out of the main hall, leaning against the railing, the rich fragrance of makeup enveloped the entire ship, sniffing the brackish sea breeze, and tapped the beat of those erotic lyrics with his knuckles.

It sounds pretty good.He likes it too.

His fingertips were still touching the slightly prickly wooden board when he was suddenly pressed against the wooden board in the corner behind him by the people behind him.

Across the wall is the corridor where people come and go.

Vehipel looked at him, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, as if he was holding back something.

He pressed the lower half of Huangxuan Jin's face, and put his wrist on his neck, like a very hungry tiger and leopard pressing a silly roe deer.

Huang Xuanjin smiled shamelessly, "Your Highness has an injury on his arm, it's better not to use such force."

He put his hand on Vichypel's hand, as if trying to pull Vichypel's hand off but couldn't.

"Come back with me." Wihipel stared at him firmly.

However, Huang Xuanjin raised his hand and brushed away the long silver hair that was entwined around Visipel's neck, "Your Highness, I have become a demon."

"Between you and me, there is only life and death, nothing else." He looked at Vehipel with a chuckle.

"But this place is not good, the ship will capsize if there is a disturbance." He frowned, as if a little unhappy, "The ship will berth at Moyang Wharf in Zishi, and I will wait for you on the deck."

After speaking, he grabbed Wisipel's hand, and then walked back without looking back.

Gold powder was scattered in the main hall, women in light dance clothes were leaning on the sides of the drunken men, and the surroundings were filled with the sound of teasing and melodious music...

Huangxuan Jin returned to his seat. There were spring pancakes at the banquet, as well as the best duck meat carefully picked from the duck skeleton.He smiled idiotically, grabbed the peony petals in the vase in front of him and threw them on the spring pancakes, and then smeared them with fruit wood sauce.

One bite of peony, one bite of spring cake.

The person next to him raised his hand and looked at him with a smile, saying that he must be drunk, but he laughed twice and fell down drunk first, then thumped and shouted that I was not drunk.

Huang Xuanjin was still smirking, watching the crowd happy to enjoy the gold leaf balm, and fed the rouge-colored peony into his mouth.

His fingers were stained with osmanthus-colored sauce, and he bent his right leg and put his right hand on it.Then he rested his head on his lap like a drunk.

"Jiangnan is good, Lianye He Tiantian..."

He hummed a Jiangnan ditty in a low voice.

The peony is bitter, and the spring breeze is strong.

Drunk tonight, I don't know where to go...

He raised his glass to the frosty man opposite the banquet from afar.

When it was two minutes away, Vehipel held the cool secret-colored ice-cracked wine glass in his hand.

A solitary figure stood alone on the board of the ship, wearing an apricot-colored cloak full of flowers.He remembered that when Huangxuanjin left the banquet just now, he pulled off an apricot-colored cloak, which was also full of flowers.

He stared at the figure casually wrapped in a cloak, and called out the crows around him, but the crows had just flown to the splint before they were killed by a more chilling aura.

He had no choice but to take back the crows and wait for Zishi.

The ship docked, and the unloading was handled by the steward and the servants, and everyone at the banquet was still drunk for some reason.

Vichypel walked through the drunk men and women to the deck.

Hearing someone coming, the man in the cloak on the deck turned around joyfully, "Young Master Jin, are you back?"

Wisipel looked at Lan Gu who looked astonished in front of him, "Why are you?"

On the canal where the night wind was cold, Huangxuan Jin rowed a small broken boat sexily.

"Can you two stop patronizing Sha Le and get off the boat too?" He looked at the two burly fools opposite and complained.

Zhu Zhenming held the armor in his hands and remained silent, while Long Chengyu smiled.

He was not too tired rowing down the current.

The night river under the boats looks like a large piece of well-researched Hui ink.

The lights on both sides of the bank are gradually brightening, and the lights like molten gold stars slowly flow into the river, like the gold powder falling from the sky in that night banquet.

There were lotus flowers floating by in the river, and Huang Xuanjin's hand holding the oar stopped slightly.

He looked at the makeup houses and restaurants on both sides of the bank, and the red sleeves all over the city seemed to be piled up on this bank.There was a faint sound of drums coming from Loufang.

"Does Your Highness want to give me a piece of Jinling scenery?" He said loudly.

He closed his eyes and then opened them again.

All of a sudden, the makeup buildings and restaurants were all wiped out in the lights.

The canal below the boat is as bright as a day mirror.

And they were walking in a blaze of light, the boundaries and shores of the canal were no longer visible, and they seemed to be in the boundless sea of ​​​​days.

The radiant lotus is flowing on the mirror-like river.

Vihipel landed in front of them, tiptoeing on the water of the Mirror of Day, his silver silk robe spread out.

Huangxuan Jinxu held the oar in his hand, then leaned his head on the oar, and looked at Vehipel with a smile.Long Chengyu dared not speak in a daze, while Zhu Zhenming held the plum blossom helmet in his hand.

"Is this His Highness's Soul Domain?"

"Yes."

"Then it seems that I just want to escape and there is no place to escape." Huang Xuanjin put down the oar in his hand, picked up the luggage next to him, took out a piece of mustard pancake from it and handed it to Long Chengyu, "Eat first, It will take a while."

Then he picked up another spring pancake and leaned on his knees to look at Wisipel, "Is there any good duck meat in your Highness's Soul Domain? It's a pity that I didn't eat enough."

"No," said Vichypel.

Huang Xuanjin shook his head helplessly, "That's really a pity."

He bit the mustache in his hand.

"Vichpel, I also thought about saving Donghuang and the world. But in the end, I was the one who wanted to destroy everything. But I felt very tired, killing people was tiring, and destroying others was also tiring. I Now I just want to find a place where there is no one to go fishing, and live a peaceful life by myself for two days."

"You can't pass." Wihipel pulled out the blade, and the light of the knife was dazzling white in the bright sky, "From the day you woke up, this world is slowly collapsing."

"I understand." Huangxuan Jin smiled, "I am the last main dish that World Tree is waiting for. I haven't cooked it well, and the dish won't be served. I cooked it to my liking, so it's time... to serve it. As a result, there was plague in Jianglou County, floods in Quailfire County, and severe drought even on the east coast, which never lacks water.”

"So you come to kill me." The boy looked up at Vehipel, "Come to defend your last justice."

Vichyperjean said nothing.

Huang Xuanjin went on to say: "That's right. No matter how you put me on the scale, I can't weigh three thousand in the world. Your Highness, you have stabbed the righteousness in your heart to death seven or eight hundred times in order to let me live. , but even if this world is destroyed, I... can't live on. I am the one who must die anyway, why not draw my sword and cut off the Nine Chains now, and fulfill His Highness's last justice. Yi is not dead yet, if he is revived, he might be able to get a doctor!"

"You shouldn't have left." Wisipel slashed in front of him, "I've done a lot for you, you should stay there until it's all over."

"How many things have you done?" Huangxuan Jin looked at Visipel, "To lure Yemengard to wake up from the dream of the year before last? Then throw millions of people into the battlefield and let them die?"

"Humans are always going to die," said Wischpelt. "They live to die."

"Me too." Huang Xuanjin said: "I also want to die, I am the same as them, but we also want to die later, for the value of death."

"It's not worth the death of a few people," Wischpel said.

"Zhu Zhenming was also awakened by His Highness?" He continued to ask.

"Yes, I have candidates for the bones of the gods and the blood of animals, but it is hard to find human souls. After the second dusk battle, I found Zhu Zhenming's body, awakened him, and imprisoned him in Arthur's military department. ’ said Vihipel.

"Your Highness really has far-reaching plans."

"If you want to hear it, I can tell you one by one." Vehipel looked at the boy on the boat and said.

Huang Xuanjin squeezed the beard cake in his hand and smiled foolishly, as if he was chewing raw peonies at the banquet just now.

"No, it has nothing to do with me." He patted the crumbs of the mustache on the brocade jacket, stood up from the boat, and a small boat swayed slightly on the river surface of the mirror of day, creating a circle of silver ripples.

He blew the flute with broken bronze bones, and lights were born on both sides of the bank, but the lights were not stable, flickering in the sound of the flute.

The sound of the flute suddenly changed, the lights suddenly turned on, and the dark red jacquard brocade on the boy's body was blown by the wind.

Everything went back to the makeup building and wine shop just now, the lights were bright, the boat was sailing on the river, and the water was like ink.

The sounds of all beasts treading on their flutes come, and Ying invites me, like a deer and Shu...

They rushed towards Visipel suddenly, and Visipel drew out the hundred-clawed knife, and cut through the souls of those beasts.

Bi Fangniao saw that the world was on fire.

Giant one-legged birds grew abruptly on the ink-like river, and the flames seemed to burn the river.

Wisper swung his knife to cut through the fire curtain in front of him, and a vast ice fog was born in the soul domain.He raised his hand and waved away the barriers of fire and fog.So the smoke fell on the canal.

Ice and flint fell in the river, like the unfrozen river in the north that is always flowing with fire.

The empty boat was dangling in the river, with only half-eaten mustaches and oars left on board.

On the distant shore, Huang Xuanjin pulled Zhu Zhenming who was wearing heavy armor, and pulled him ashore, then looked at the surrounding woods, "I don't know where this is, but it should be your house."

"The sky is going to perish, the land is going to be barren, I'm running for my life..."

He shook his head and pressed Long Chengtang's chest beside him, making Long Chengtang spit out water.

The three of them walked along the river for half a month, Long Chengzhen only knew to follow Huangxuan Jin, the whole way was mostly wilderness woods, and at the end there was gradually smoke from cooking.

It was a county called Mo Lao, and Huangxuanjin led the two of them to eat a bowl of wontons at a noodle stall at the entrance of the alley. Zhu Zhenming didn’t really need to eat, but Huangxuanjin ordered him a bowl anyway.Zhu Zhenming sat on a willow bench holding the bowl of wontons, without speaking or moving, the shopkeeper looked at him curiously.

Huang Xuanjin ate quite freely, calmly asking the store to add coriander and green onion.

After eating the wontons, Huang Xuanjin touched his mouth, "Shopkeeper, do you know that there is a man named Zhu Wuye in the city? I heard that his son is some sort of general."

"Did you see that?" The shopkeeper raised his head and pointed to a tall house in a deep courtyard. It was Su's house. There was a screen wall inside the door, but there were no peonies and hibiscus painted on the screen wall. Instead, it was a picture of subduing dragons and tigers. It looked like a town house. of.

"It's quite impressive." Huang Xuanjin looked at Zhu Zhenming.

"That's Zhu Wuye's original house." The store wiped the table with a rag and said, "Since his son died, he has been kicked out. Others say that his son betrayed the country and killed ten people." More than ten thousand people. Together with the young master of the Huangxuan family, they practiced sorcery and made life difficult for the people in the northern border."

"Then he..."

"But he insisted on saying that his son would come back to him. He built a thatched hut next to him, and insisted on not leaving. The big family who occupied his house asked someone to beat him a few times, saying that his son would come to him if he came. I came to look for him in my dream, but he just refused to leave. Then the big family followed him.”

Huang Xuanjin looked at Zhu Zhenming beside him, who was still holding the bowl of wontons.

He paid the shopkeeper, and Zhu Zhenming stood at the entrance of the alley, looking at the thatched cottage, until Yemu.

In the twilight, a figure in armor knelt down a hundred feet away from the thatched cottage, kowtowed three long heads, and then turned into ashes.

"Is he dead?" Long Chengyu asked him.

"Yes." Huangxuan Jin touched the melon seeds that he had stolen from the store, "But in many cases, death is not a bad thing."
