"Senior brother has never been mean to me before." Xia Jingge said with some frustration.

"That's because you were young before." Mentioning his senior brother Feng Fuling made him very angry.

At first glance, this seems to be an irrelevant answer, but when you think about it carefully, it seems to have some truth.When a person is young, he will believe in every word said by the elders whom he loves and admires, and even obey it as an imperial decree.When Xia Jingge was young, although she was not very obedient and well-behaved, she would never completely disagree with his senior brother, or even quarrel.

He used to look up to his senior brother all the time.What he said was basically what he said. Before that, even Xia Jingge himself couldn't imagine what it would be like to contradict his senior brother.But that's what he did.

On the issue of Feng Fuling, his senior brother seemed to suddenly descend from the height that Xia Jingge needed to look up to.

Or, it wasn't because of his sudden downfall, but because his point of view was contrary to Xia Jingge's, and he became dissatisfied, causing him to resist in his heart.

The thinking was different, Xia Jingge began to have what he wanted, he trusted his own judgment more, and was even willing to pay some price for it, and he couldn't do everything as his brother envisioned.

What's more, the most important thing is that his senior brother's hatred for the demon group can be extended to Feng Fuling without hindrance.But Xia Jingge couldn't.

He hoped that senior brother would give Fu Ling a chance, not to regard him as an enemy, and not to be too guarded, but now it seems that this is probably impossible.

Xia Jingge had expected that he would always be caught in this dilemma in the future. He and his senior brother were like at the two ends of a tug-of-war. I firmly believe that as long as the other party comes over, they can figure it out. There are only misunderstandings and no differences in their views on this matter.

The worst situation may be like this. Both of them insist on this idea, and they both want to convince each other. In fact, neither of them can convince the other.Because what they see may be completely different.

Xia Jingge sighed slightly, he suddenly had a different feeling, when he was in Li Yuchong's enchantment, he only had to think about practicing exercises all day, as if he was more comfortable and happy.Xia Jingge also felt a little uncomfortable seeing Feng Fuling's brows that hadn't been stretched after hearing his brief introduction. He always hoped that even if Fu Ling and his senior brother couldn't appreciate each other, they would get along in harmony.But that might just be his wishful thinking.

Xia Jingge patted Feng Fuling's arm, originally wanting to show comfort, but seeing him frowning unnaturally, he immediately straightened his face.Sensitively sensing something wrong, he instinctively pulled Feng Fuling's hand away, and when he lifted up his sleeve, he saw that Feng Fuling's hand was wrapped in a circle of bandages.There was bright red blood oozing faintly from the bandage. It was a long and narrow section, and it was obviously a long cut. Xia Jingge couldn't help being surprised, "Why are you injured?"

"... When I left the inn today, I met a child." Feng Fuling looked at Xia Jingge's expression, hesitated before saying, "Suddenly he gave me a knife."

He probably wanted to talk about this matter as plainly as possible, but Xia Jingge was used to thinking, and then he widened his eyes: "What's going on? A child can hurt you?"

"That's what happened. An ordinary child, I didn't pay attention when I walked over... Maybe all his family members were killed by the demon, and I don't know where I heard that I was a demon, so I stepped on the door of the inn every day to recognize my face." Xia Jingge looked at his hand again, although she couldn't see what the wound was like, how could ordinary people hurt Feng Fuling?Even if he only had to think about it, he also knew that it was the child who had taken the risk to assassinate him. In order to prevent the demonic energy from hurting him, an ordinary child, Feng Fu Ling didn't use anything, and directly blocked the knife with his hand.If he hadn't slapped him just now, Fu Ling would probably have kept the matter a secret... Even if he was injured, he would not mention it if he hadn't been injured.

On this land, how many of these people who are willing to trust the monks do not hate the demons?I'm afraid I can count them.On the contrary, there are many, many, who feel deep pain and disgust, and their eyes on Feng Fuling are probably more harsh than their eyes on Xia Jingge.

Xia Jingge suddenly realized that she was dragging Feng Fuling down.Even for a long time, he has been dragging him down.If he hadn't given half of his skills to himself, Fu Ling wouldn't have reached the desired stage until now. If they hadn't met the Jiuhua sect after they came out, they would have gone into the area controlled by the demons to inquire about Xiang Rong.Because of him, the matter of Feng Fuling was delayed again and again, but he never mentioned it.

"Fu Ling, let's go." After looking at Feng Fuling for a long time, Xia Jingge said with a deep breath.He thought Fu Ling would be very happy.And he will once again stay away from his sect.Before he even made a trip back.

Xia Jingge knew in her heart that leaving quietly at such a time was the most unexpected and the most unimaginable possibility for others.Because the Jiuhua faction is about to set off to go back.He, who has been away from the sect for many years, should go back together to have a look at him anyway.

Not to mention Feng Fuling's surprised expression, Xia Jingge himself didn't expect it either.At least before today, he hadn't seriously thought about it.These days, although he lived in this inn feeling bored and wanted to leave the inn from time to time, he never thought of leaving just like that, even the Jiuhua faction would not go back.But when he thought about it carefully, he had met both his senior brother and his junior sister, and there was no one in the Jiuhua Sect that he cared about anymore, so it seemed that there would be no loss if he didn't go back.Thinking of the different treatment that Fu Ling might suffer when he returned to the Jiuhua Sect together with him, he felt even more regretful.

He doesn't know how long it will take to leave this time.But they can start looking for Xiang Rong.As long as they cover up well and enter the area controlled by the demons, maybe the two of them will be more comfortable than here.Thinking about this, Xia Jingge smiled at Feng Fuling in a low voice: "How about waiting for the day when the leader of the alliance is elected? At that time, everyone will be watching the meeting, and we don't have to attend. It will be easier to go." After finishing speaking, he turned to He glanced at the direction of Xiang Li next door, guessing that he couldn't hear clearly, so he was a little relieved.

"Where do you want to go?" Feng Fuling asked again.This is what should be.

"Go to Xiang Rong and Xiang Yu, and go to the places we agreed upon in the enchantment." Xia Jingge said with a smile. "At that time, I will be responsible for my personal safety."

Feng Fuling also showed a slight smile: "It goes without saying." He stretched out his uninjured hand to grab Xia Jingge, and with a slight push, Xia Jingge fell on the bed by himself, tilted his head and smiled at him.In his smile, in his eyes, it seems that the warmth of the stars is always lit, and just one look, it can shine into his heart.It seems to be able to connect and fuse with the soul.

It makes people want to stop watching and can't move their eyes.

Feng Fuling looked at him quietly for a while, and in this mutual gaze, it seemed that time had stood still.He found satisfaction in this gaze, and seemed to have obtained everything.He thought that Xia Jingge should understand better than him, as long as he was walking with his beloved, it didn't matter where he was.Even if it is cast into a purgatory-like human world, it is a path where lotus grows every step of the way, where vegetation grows and birds sing and flowers smell everywhere.

In fact, Xia Jingge didn't realize that this had anything to do with her beloved.He just thought that if he and Fu Ling wanted to live like two Taoist couples, it would be difficult to find a place that could accommodate both of them at the same time and allow them to rest for a long time.Maybe he and Fu Ling will become double-leaf duckweeds from now on, drifting with the current, drifting around without knowing where the end point is in the distance.But that doesn't matter, Xia Jingge thought.As long as he was with Fu Ling, whether it was making two leaves of duckweed with him, or two frolicking birds, it was a pleasant and beautiful thing.
