The beginning of the catastrophe

【Chapter Eight】

"Why do you think of looking for me to accompany you to collect medicine, your junior brother who never leaves?"

The man with the tidy jade crown asked casually as he waved the green fruit he had picked from nowhere.

The young man in lake clothes leaned over to carefully identify a clump of light yellow and green pistils, but unexpectedly froze, and straightened up as if nothing had happened, "Jing Yu, what nonsense are you talking about, even though we are on good terms, we don't need to go together in everything."

Lin Jingyu pouted, resentfully,

"Forget it, ever since you picked him up back then, I thought he was your playmate when you were young, count how many times you and I can see each other in a month"

The tall man turned his face around, his round eyes were clear, his lips were bright red, his slightly childish face was already full of youth, he twisted his sleeves behind his back, and answered absent-mindedly, "So I'm not coming to you"

Lin Jingyu kept Qingyun's demeanor in mind, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and was about to speak out when he heard soft and steady footsteps from behind, glanced at Zhang Xiaofan who was obviously more flustered, and said with a smile, "Yes, Cao Cao When it’s over, I’d better be more sensible, so as not to annoy you two.”

The speaker has no intention, but the hearer has a heart.Zhang Xiaofan's complexion changed suddenly, he reprimanded,

"What nonsense!"

However, Lin Jingyu's figure was already floating, and he went quite a distance.

"nonsense"

Zhang Xiaofan has not yet lamented the fragility of the chief actor's friendship, the indifferent male voice that he hides for fear of being out of reach is close at hand.To outsiders, they probably felt that this person's voice had a sense of stability, and he must be a gentleman without a doubt, but he felt a chill in his heart.

Zhang Xiaofan clearly sensed the strong oppressive force behind him, before he could turn around, his hand was grabbed, and a clear voice sounded in his ear, "Senior brother said yesterday that he would study mind-study in the house, why did he come to the back mountain today?"

With a dry laugh,

"It's stuffy in the house, I..."

"hide me"

Unexpectedly, he didn't want to listen to a word, so he just exposed it directly, and the strength of holding his left hand became heavier.Zhang Xiaofan pursed his lips and said nothing, he was turned around and pressed hard against the tree next to him, his eyes met, and the clothes of the same color collided for a moment.

Ye Hua looked at the person who had been hiding from him for several days since he returned from the battle with the Demon Cult that day, suppressed the dryness of wanting to kiss him, and felt a little helpless, "How did I offend you?"

The two of them have only known each other for more than a month, and they have to be careful to avoid going up and down Qingyun, so they haven't hugged each other a few times, and a cold war broke out for no reason.

Zhang Xiaofan was uncomfortable with this trapped posture, thinking that there must be a break, he simply met his gaze and said, "Ye Hua, since you have no intention of doing anything to me, why bother to have more sex? You and I will do it from now on. Back to the teacher... um"

His lips were sealed when he disagreed with each other, and the end of the sentence finally disappeared in the exchange of body fluids. Ye Hua pinched his waist, forcefully pried his lips and teeth open with his tongue, and kissed fiercely.This is the place where disciples gather medicine, someone will pass by at some time, Zhang Xiaofan panicked, pushed Ye Hua away desperately.Ye Hua staggered, and a strand of silver fell from the corners of their lips.Zhang Xiaofan pulled his sleeves to wipe it off, glared at the person who didn't care, turned around and left.

"Manyuejing, the person you saw was me, right?"

There was a soft voice behind him but he stopped his footsteps. He was still full of coldness just now, but it turned into joy in a moment.Zhang Xiaofan curled his eyelashes, he didn't dare to admit anything, "So you know that well..."

Ye Hua approached him with a low voice,

"I went to ask my senior sister, and that's when I found out. Don't be angry, I don't know why that well doesn't work for me."

That well, Yehua fell into his eyes, but the other party only saw a plate of moonflowers.

That month was really beautiful.

Zhang Xiaofan recalled Ye Hua's bewildered appearance at that time, closed his eyes and opened them again, and said flatly,

"I'm not angry. I've just been thinking about it for the past few days. It's either invalid or you don't have someone you love."

Ye Hua heard his refusal, and inevitably panicked, she tried to pull his hand but was avoided, and couldn't find a reason to explain it, so she had to ask, "Xiaofan, can you believe me?"

Zhang Xiaofan bit his lip, raised his head, half of the wall was on fire, sparrows chirped.

……

The brilliance of the full moon and the coldness of autumn fell on the two of them in the forest, as if they were covered with a layer of plain veil, and there was no warmth left.

Gui Li's back was facing Ye Hua, his eyelashes were like butterfly wings, his clothes were as dark as night, rippling motionless, his body under the robe was quietly tense, his eyes were cold, and his long fingers hidden in his sleeves were curled up.

In front of the ancient well, the moss is wet and cold, and the water ripples imprint the sky and the moon, and the faint coldness seems to enter the heart.Gui Li looked at his own face printed on the water surface, secretly suppressed the turmoil in his heart, turned his expression, and swayed around.His lips are light-colored, and there is a very faint smile, the brows are indifferent, but the tone of his voice is still a little more distant than a month ago, as if he just met the person opposite him, "Your Highness is really superb in cultivation. Found it here."

Ye Hua pursed her lips tightly, as if she was secretly displeased with his resignation,

"Where are you going?"

With his hands behind him, Gui Li said frankly,

"There has been a lot of trouble recently, and now I have to go back to the ghost clan."

Ye Hua's eyes sink like a well,

"Leave without saying goodbye?"

Ghost Li was not frightened by his cold face, standing on the slippery ground, his body was steady,

"There are many affairs in the church. I sent a letter to find me. I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to inform His Highness in the future. I am rude."

He paused,

"Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness Labor came to look for it in person, which made me very uneasy."

Although reasonable, it is too polite.

As if, deliberately.

Ye Hua was only a few feet away from him, and his eyes were deep and calm,

"Does the leader know why I came here?"

Ghost Li's standing posture was covered by the shadow, it was so dark, and he didn't know whether it was the wet and cold forest, or the chill quietly coming from his body, he opened his lips calmly, "Could it be that His Highness is thinking about my wounds, Find it here on purpose. His Highness should return to Qingqiu or Tiangong as soon as possible, so as not to miss the Emperor Ji and Tiansun."

Not right.

He disappeared without saying a word, and he followed his breath to find him. This person didn't explain a word, but he still seemed to think he was troublesome.

Ye Hua's eyelids moved, anger arose in his heart,

"Why are you leaving?"

Gui Li put his hand between his lips and chuckled, avoiding his gaze.

"What did your Highness ask? The injury is healed, so naturally we have to leave. Besides, I just explained that my ghost clan has a lot of affairs, so it's not good to continue to bother me. Besides, I'm still with Di Ji, which will delay you and Di Ji for a long time. , is already guilty."

The words inside and outside were all about reminding Ye Hua and Bai Qian of their relationship, Ye Hua's face became more and more serious, but suddenly she changed the subject, "I don't know if the leader knows that I once had a mortal wife."

It was a question, but in a firm tone.

Gui Li thought about it for a while, not knowing what Ye Hua meant, he nodded his head slightly.

Seeing him nodding, Ye Hua continued, feeling confused in her heart,

"My wife jumped from Zhuxiantai more than 200 years ago. On that day, the fairy pond was full of flowers and plants. She had a decisive attitude and jumped straight. But when she jumped down, I remembered something,"

The corners of the mouth of the person listening to his plain narration gradually stiffened, and his eyes turned cold uncontrollably. Ye Hua seemed not to notice his changes, and said to himself

"At that moment, a mortal man in black suddenly appeared in my mind. He jumped down in front of me as if he was also in Zhuxian Terrace."

He raised his head suddenly, fixed his eyes on Gui Li, paused every word,

"Swear that if there is an afterlife, you will never fall in love with me again."

The fingertips hidden in the sleeves turned white, and the nails pierced into the palm of his hand. Gui Li raised his hand to rest his forehead, suppressing the inexplicable coldness aroused by his words, with a sneer and indifference in his tone, "His Royal Highness and Ben What does the king say, whether His Royal Highness is short-sleeved, affectionate or Jiao'e loves strong has nothing to do with me, and this king is not interested in your love history at all, you don't want to say that mortal is this king, do you?"

It was the first time I heard him call himself "the King".

Ye Hua didn't make a sound, Gui Li raised his eyebrows,

"Yehua, look clearly, the man you're talking about is a mortal, but this king is from the ghost clan, let alone,"

He lifted his fingers to brush away the strands of hair falling on his forehead, his tone became cold,

"Don't forget, you already have a marriage contract!"

Ye Hua's eyes were silent for a while, and he smiled slightly, his tone regained his calmness and indifference, "Why is the leader so angry? I came here, just thinking that the injury on the leader's body might be a bit off. Unexpectedly, it is hard to guarantee that Qianqian will not be so tired that she will have a rift with Gui Jun, since the young master is fine, I am also at ease."

Oh, it's really a deep love between husband and wife.

Gui Li's heart was sour, but his complexion turned pale, and his tone couldn't find anything wrong, "Di Ji really found a good husband-in-law who is so considerate to her. Recently, His Highness and Di Ji have taken care of her. If His Highness gets married in the future, This king should send a big gift to congratulate."

The corners of Ye Hua's lips are slightly soft,

"The big gift is not necessary, I just want to ask you a doubt?"

"Please speak, Your Highness."

A white light flashed in Ye Hua's hands, and two jade pendants lay quietly in his palms, the one on the left was given by Gui Li on Tuanzi's birthday, he raised his head, "This jade pendant was given to Xiao'er by Master Xue, don't you know Does Mr. Blood know this, another jade pendant."

Gui Li's heart suddenly became turbulent, and his fingertips pierced his palm, trying to pull out a surprised expression, "Could it be that the prince has a bad memory, as I said before, this jade was a gift from an old friend, only this piece, this other piece, really Never seen."

Ye Hua stared into his eyes, and Gui Li looked at him calmly. After a long time, he put away the jade pendant, and the blackness in his eyes faded, "Since that's the case, please tell me who is that old friend?"

Isn't it over yet? Gui Li's heart sank and his tone became cold.

"I said it was an old friend, so I don't remember it. The difference in lifespan between the human and ghost races is more than a thousand years. What's the meaning of your highness being so entangled?"

Human race... Ye Hua tightened his grip on the jade pendant, his eyes returned to silence, and he could see that Gui Li would really strike at the slightest disagreement at this time, he was confused but knew that he couldn't keep him.

"Since this is the case, I still have something to do, so I will go ahead and not bother you."

"Your Highness, please."

Ye Hua stepped on the auspicious clouds and disappeared into the sky, Gui Li stood still for a while, exhaled a foul breath, pulled out the warm jade in his arms, blue light flashed, and the spiritual consciousness inside was already shattered.He turned around, the well was clear and pure.

He clasped the corner of his clothes tightly with his fingers, and the blood-stained pupils were looming. Fortunately, he has not fallen in love with him again.

……

28 The star halls are all brightly lit. Looking from the human world, Beigong Xuanwu has already appeared a little bit, and the clouds are weaving and floating, drifting into black ash, forming a half-walled cloud river, and it is time to turn overcast.

A shadowy figure passed through the clouds, soundlessly, as thin as the gate of heaven, seeing that it was about to enter the palace of heaven, suddenly lifted a colorless wall, sound waves swayed, its figure turned around, and it was impossible to pass.The heavenly soldiers at the gate of heaven seem to have sensed it, and they came from afar, seeing no abnormalities and staying at night with peace of mind.

"Tiangong Yeliang, Your Excellency, be careful."

Just when the man wanted to fight hard, a clear and faint voice sounded behind him, he turned around, and a pair of spotless cloud-colored brocade shoes rolled out from a column not far away.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands,

"Third Highness was joking, I don't know what orders Third Highness has to block the way down?"

Lian Song folded the fan in his hands, smiling like a smile,

"I never told you, it's just that in the middle of the night, you don't have to disturb the emperor."

That person is in trouble,

"Since your Highness knows that I am sent by the emperor, why should you stop me?"

Lian Song leaned against the column,

"When did I say to stop you? You and I both know what the emperor intends to keep you with the prince. Since the ghost king left last night, why do you need to make unnecessary moves and alarm the emperor out of thin air?"

"But the emperor's order..."

"Father is only because the prince does not have much contact with the ghost clan. Not long ago, I went to Qingqiu by chance. The ghost king is cold-tempered and has no deep friendship with Yehua."

The man hesitated, the prince knew that he was the emperor's man, so he didn't trust him too much, and he also knew the prince had met the ghost king in the lower realm a few days ago.

Seeing that he was silent, Lian Song turned around and wanted to go,

"Father is busy every day, and it is normal for the two to meet. Today, I happened to meet you and said a few more words. If you want to disturb Father, I will naturally not say too much."

The man pondered for a moment, saluted,

"I was reckless, thank you, Third Highness, for your advice."

"No need."

The soles of the feet were covered with clouds and mist, the coolness invaded the clothes, and the ink was dripping on the folding fan. Lian Song rested his head with one hand, with mixed emotions in his heart, not knowing whether his blocking was correct.

It's rare to have deep love without regret, he can't keep Chang Yi, he only hopes that Ye Hua won't miss it, his heart.

……

Back to Zichen Palace, the room was pitch black.

The spiritual consciousness is connected to oneself, and the connection left in the warm jade from the East China Sea is finally broken.

Ye Hua was a little dazed, the night in Tiangong was cold, and it was cold at a high place. He only felt that he had endured it for tens of thousands of years, but tonight the cold disturbed his mood.

What Gui Li said is right, he is a fairy king of the ghost clan, his talent is so outstanding that it is almost sharp.However, the person who appeared in his memory the day Susu jumped off Zhuxiantai was a mortal.The ghost clan is called ghosts, but they are actually spirits. It is only because the ghost emperor named ghosts that they all called ghost clans.He was born with a divine fetus, and among the six realms, only the Celestial Clan can be compared to it. This is also the fundamental reason why the Ghost Emperor refused to accept the God Clan's control of the Six Realms 7 years ago.Fate is determined by God, and it can be easily transformed by extraordinary people.And according to what he said, the jade was a gift from the human race. Could it be that it really has nothing to do with him?He didn't have any memory of the man in black that appeared in Su Su's mind the day he jumped to Zhuxian Terrace, the face he remembered yesterday was very vague, only his voice was still quite clear, but when he recalled it carefully, he looked a bit like a ghost.

Ye Hua slowly raised his eyebrows, how could he think of Ghost Li everywhere?

But if it really had nothing to do with Gui Li, how could he suddenly be like this?

"Zhang Xiaofan..."

Every time he read a sentence, a wave of inexplicable familiarity surged in his chest, and the hatred and despair in that sentence were even more desperate to see, but he couldn't remember clearly anyway.

"Your Highness seems to be troubled?"

A humble female voice came from outside the hall, Ye Hua suddenly came back to his senses, and said softly,

"What about the group?"

Nana was the maid who took care of Susu back then, and now she takes care of Tuanzi wholeheartedly. Tuanzi returned to Tiangong to attend classes a few days ago, and Nana naturally accompanied her at night.

"Your Highness has fallen asleep."

Ye Hua didn't say a word, knowing that she came here at this time, she might have other intentions, but she saw hesitation on her face.

"Nanai knows she's overstepping the rules, it's just..."

"You want to ask, that Bai Qian?"

Nana knelt down and said nothing.

Ye Hua sighed, waved his hands to lift her up from the air,

"When you see that Bai Qian one day, maybe it will be a pleasant surprise for you."

"...Your Highness?"

"Go back..."

"……Yes."

Nana withdrew from the palace, the sound of footsteps gradually receding, the boundless sea of ​​stars was empty under the divine consciousness, and the broken stars were like rain, all of them were the radiant light escaping from under the stars.

No life, cold and cold.

Ye Hua tried her best to suppress the emptiness in her heart, cleared her mind,

Forget it, it's common for people who have experienced calamities to provoke peach blossoms. It's either a calamity of love or a lack of fate. After all, it should not be considered.

Ye Hua got up and went to a courtyard.

On the plaque was "A package of youth", he opened the door, and the courtyard was full of peach trees, which had been carefully cultivated for a hundred years, and had already bloomed slightly.

Smelling the faint fragrance of peach blossoms all over the courtyard, the restlessness in his heart finally subsided. He and Susu had a child. He had been looking for Susu for hundreds of years. He shouldn't think about other things, he couldn't let Susu down.

His heart was hit hard by this knowledge, and the blood on his face disappeared little by little without noticing it.

"Ghost Li, Ghost Li"

Ye Hua closed his eyes, the sarcasm at the corner of Gui Li's mouth became more and more clear, his heart seemed to be empty, regardless of other things, he understood one thing, he must not be a heartless person.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of clarity.

He looked around the courtyard, thinking that he should find an opportunity to bring Bai Qian up to have a look at the peach tree.
