Hot as China, cold as snow

Leng Xuanyan looked at the letter in his hand, but he never mustered up the courage to open the envelope. He was afraid of seeing the word "unwritten", afraid that this was the last thing he left for him.He has always wondered why Liu Moran left him for no reason.Ye Xuan stood half a step beside Leng Xuanren, not daring to move away, looked at the pieces of clothes on the table, and then read the letter, knelt down on one knee and said, "Master, you have stayed here for three months. Yes! Master Liu will not come back even if he stays here. Presumably, Master Liu will not want to see Master like this. There must be a reason for Master Liu to leave, maybe there will be clues in the letter, master, don't let it go. Mr. Liu must have an unfulfilled wish, and now he can only rely on the master to fulfill it."

Leng Xuanren waved his hand expressionlessly, and Ye Xuan backed away.Leng Xuanren rubbed the yellow envelope cover repeatedly and finally opened it.

"When you read this letter, I have already left you on the way to the ends of the earth, please forgive me for doing this. Although I know you will be very sad and angry, I still choose to do this, not because I don't trust you , I don’t want to be by your side, but want to give you a long-term company, but now I can’t even give you such a simple promise.

If you can't stay together, I'd rather not give you hope.

Maybe you have already felt that my body is changing at an incredible speed, and sometimes I don't even know myself.After much deliberation, I finally feel that you have the right to affection.This is a very special physiological change of the crape myrtle family.

You should know that Wuyin Mountain is the burial place of the Ziwei people, and it is a place closely related to our blood, but I didn’t know what would happen if the living Ziwei people went to that place and left safely.But now I read "Ziwei Miscellaneous Records" and I understand it clearly.When the mist there meets the blood of Ziwei, it will produce a special substance, which I will call 'substance'.This "substance" can make people not old, which is why the Tao Fuxing we saw in the Wuyin Mountain looks as young as 20 years ago.But that kind of substance has a limitation, that is, it cannot leave Wuyin Mountain, once it leaves Wuyin Mountain, that 'substance' will become a kind of poison, and this poison is called falling dust.

Ancient Poison Falling Dust is a chronic poison in which the blood in the body will lose blood and die with sweating. When the drug poison occurs, it will emit the fragrance of crape myrtle, and there will be accompanying symptoms such as blindness in the later stage.

I didn't know until long after I left Wuyin Mountain.At the beginning, it was just a slight night sweat, and the fragrance of crape myrtle flowers was faintly exuded from the body. Later, there was a short-term blindness, and the color of the sweat on the body gradually deepened and turned into a faint red.I know I can't hide it from you, you should have noticed it a long time ago!I'm glad you didn't expose me, so that I can get along with you peacefully for so long.

In the past six months, I have been studying "Ziwei Miscellaneous Records". This toxin is recorded in ancient books, and the method of detoxification is also recorded, but it is a bit complicated. I will find a way to detoxify and cure my illness.I won't be returning to Pinggu during this time, and you don't want to look for me either.Master, he is old, I am very worried, if you are interested, I hope to help take care of him.

If you believe in me, just wait for me, until I have the ability to promise you the promise of being with you for a lifetime.One day, if we meet again, it will be the time when we get together.At that time, I will definitely spend my whole life as the king's property, and we will never say goodbye, and we will live together forever. "Signed Liu Moran.

Leng Xuanyan put away the letter carefully, and touched the broken skirt in the tray on the table with one hand, as if he could feel the temperature of that person: "Fool, you fool, I can accompany you, But now you are so uncertain about life and death, what should I do?" Leng Xuanren sighed deeply, and looked up at the sky with empty eyes: "What a fool, to use Taoshan people to reassure me. Forget it, you must be worried about going to the mausoleum People from Zhoutao Mountain, if your wish is yours, I will do my best to make it come true for you." He got up and left the house, stood on the top of the cliff that he hadn't left for three months, and ordered: "Get ready to go to Lingzhou Pinggu, Yexuan, I asked you to check it out." There are too many questions for him to find.

Ye Xuan knelt on one knee under the shade of the tree, even the shadow was covered by the shadow, and said: "I have found out, the ancient prescription, soak the petals of the snowy demon lotus with the tears of the fire unicorn for three days and three nights before it can be used as medicine. It can cure hundreds of poisons. Presumably Young Master Liu knows about it."

"He really kept it from me and wanted to find these things alone."

"Lord, these two things are ancient legends, no one has seen them before, and I'm afraid there will be no trace of them."

Leng Xuanyan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of the fire unicorn on Mount Xutu: "No, there is, the fire unicorn is real, not a legend, and this poison can be cured." But his eyes slowly dimmed: "Only What a pity, Liu Moran, where are you now? Yexuan, a group of people continue to search for Liu Moran. A group of people go to find out the whereabouts of these two things. Prepare horses, let's go to Lingzhou Pinggu."

After entering the boundary of Lingzhou, step on the chain bridge, cross the Huanhe River, and arrive at a small island called Pinggu.More than a circle around the island is a free-growing peach tree. This kind of tree blooms here all year round. The pink petals dance with the wind. The peach blossom forest planted by Leng Xuanjian around the island passes a light blue crape myrtle bush. , bathed in the fragrance of crape myrtle, seemed to feel that Liu Moran was by his side, they had the same smell.Beside the quiet spring pool, butterflies are flying and flowers are falling. It is as quiet and peaceful as before. This is a clean place that has never been polluted by the world, and it is a paradise of peach blossoms in the world.

Leng Xuanren gently pushed open the door, but he didn't see Tao Shanren. Looking around, the door of the ancestral hall was open, and a figure was faintly reflected in the sunlight.Leng Xuanren walked towards the ancestral hall. An old man in white clothes and white hair was sitting cross-legged on the rush grass, bathed in the brilliance of the sun. In front of him was a peaceful statue, a barefoot man with colorful floating clouds under his feet, holding a sword in one hand Across the chest, with the other hand holding a crape myrtle flower slightly forward, with a peaceful face and an unchanging smile.The incense enshrined on the table burns slowly, filling the room with smoke.

Taoshan native from Lingzhou sat on the futon, holding a rosary in one hand, without opening his eyes: "When did this place become a place where you can come and go freely?"

"Senior." Leng Xuanren cupped his hands and saluted.

"Go and fill the water tank outside, and then go and chop the firewood in front of the door. After finishing, look for the old man in front of the waterfall." Taoshan people sat on the futon, chanting rosary beads in their hands, and closed the door after giving orders. eyes.

Leng Xuanren nodded in agreement, picked water and chopped firewood, and then went to the waterfall to meet the appointment of Taoshan people, but from the west of the sun to sunset, there was no sign of Taoshan people.Leng Xuanyan thought for a while, turned around and wanted to find someone, but when he turned around, he saw the back of the Taoshan people leaving. Thinking of Taoshan people's entrustment, he waited in front of the waterfall with peace of mind.However, from the time when the sky was dark and the insects and birds were silent to the morning star rising and the sun first shining, there was still no one.

The rising sun is about to rise, the rooster has crowed twice, and this is the time for Taoshan people to get up early for morning exercises. At some point, he is standing under the waterfall, not far away from Leng Xuanren: "The child with the yellow mouth is waiting anxiously?"

"It's okay." Leng Xuanyan shook his head, watching the sun rise, he felt a sense of tranquility in his heart, which broke the anxiety that had lasted for months.He knew that the people from Taoshan made him wait this night specially to calm his mind.What's more, as a killer, 'forbearance' is a great skill.

Tao Shanren, dressed in loose white clothes, nodded: "Young man, it's a good thing to have a calm temper."

Leng Xuanren wanted to say something, but Tao Shanren stretched out his hand to stop his words: "I am very clear about your reason for coming. Zhuer has already told this old man what happened for nearly a year. I am too old to control you guys." It’s young people’s world. I already know about Ran’er, the old man has calculated Ran’er’s horoscope, his fate is not like this, and the variables are extremely variable. Sometimes there must be a fate, and there is no time to force it.”

After hearing this, Leng Xuanyan was slightly moved: "Senior, what you mean is that Liu Moran will turn the bad luck into good fortune, and we will meet again someday?"

The Taoshan people ignored him, just listened to the sound of the waterfall, and looked up at the bright red sun: "The essence of the sun is the purest at this time of the day. During this day and night, you chop firewood and carry water, and watch the sun rise and set. Is there any inspiration for you?" Leng Xuanren didn't want to ask again, and he also looked at the river and waterfall, at the Hongxia Chaoyang, turning over the fragments one by one in his mind, as if it had gone through a thousand years, and finally returned to Calm, my mind is blank, and only the initial feeling remains: "When the rain nourishes the earth, the trees will flourish. When firewood is cut and burned to boil water, water turns into air and turns into clouds, and clouds turn into rain. Life is endless, and everything begins. The rising and setting of the sun brings about an endless cycle of life and hope. When the mind is calm and the eyes are clear, the sun’s light seems to be brighter, the field of vision is wider and the mind is more transparent.”

"A person's life is also like this endless spring, the cycle of rising and setting is the same. The stop and go is the end point. Some people and certain things are destined to be like this. All they want is a word of resignation. Besides, anyone can Can't jump out of the three realms, and among the five elements, the authorities can't see through the end point, this circle, this circle." Tao Shanren drew a circle in emptiness.

Life and death are nothing but a cycle, just look away.Leng Xuanyan knew that Tao Shanren was using his method to enlighten him, but people are not ruthless like grass and trees, not just because they just look away.

Tao Shanren drew a dot in the center of the circle and said: "Young people should also have some enthusiasm. Sometimes it is not a good thing to be too calm and sophisticated. Too many things in the heart are called pressure. If you use it well, it is motivation." , it will collapse if you don’t use it well. Do what you want! Since you are holding our Ziwei clan’s sword, don’t embarrass the Ziwei clan.”

Tao Shanren flew up and crossed the waterfall, leaving a white back in the morning light. Leng Xuanren looked at his leaving back and murmured: "Do as you want." Tao Shanren has already recognized this. He got cold black blade.Leng Xuanren's brows that had been wrinkled for several days stretched out and said loudly to the disappearing figure: "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
