The two little boys ran to the front only to find that there was another person.They all took a look at Xiao Fuxuan, shrunk behind Wu Xingxue very confidently, and hid behind their robes.

Wu Xingxue felt that she had picked up a ghost.

Xiao Fuxuan turned her head and didn't look at the boy talking nonsense, just looked at him.

Wu Xingxue closed his eyes.

For the first time in his life he was so resistant to self-reporting.

Or I can make up a name.

Wu Xingxue thought desperately.

Anyway, don't get close to this stranger in Tianxiu, and I definitely don't remember who there are in Xiandu.Even if you have heard of someone's name, you won't pay attention to it, let alone match your face with the name.

Just do it.

He was about to speak, when Xiao Fuxuan's thin lips moved slightly, and his deep voice sounded: "I have never had any enmity with King Ling, why do people harm me."

Wu Xingxue: "..."

OK, I can't make it up.

When the two little boys heard this, they stuck their heads out from behind him, and their eyes widened in surprise.Then he looked at Wu Xingxue and whispered: "My lord, he is Tianxiu? Then did we miss something?"

Wu Xingxue: "..."

He lifted the chaotian chirp on the little boy's head, and asked quietly, "Do you two think your voice is low?"

The little boy is not stupid, he still doesn't understand the abilities of the people in Xiandu.What they thought was "whispering" was simply a loud conspiracy in front of Tangtang Tianxiu.

Little boy: "Aren't you young?"

Wu Xingxue laughed angrily.

The little boy saw that he was smiling, maybe he was cowardly, and silently retracted his head.

Wu Xingxue kept that smile, raised her eyes again, and met Xiao Fuxuan's eyes again.

"..." Lord Ling Wang still opened his mouth to explain, "That's right, I just came out from Sang Feng's place, he grabbed me and cried for a long time, I couldn't stand it, so I said something casually in order to get away, just as a joke That's all."

He thought to himself, everyone has experienced the ability of the Court of Rites to grind people.As soon as Sang Feng was mentioned, Xiao Fuxuan must know what was going on, so he didn't have to waste any more words.

Unexpectedly, Tianxiu Shangxian took a look at him after listening to him, and said solemnly: "Who is Sang Feng?"

Wu Xingxue was very surprised: "You don't know Sang Feng?"

Xiao Fuxuan: "Should I know?"

Wu Xingxue reminded: "Li Pavilion, the one who gave the boy fairy envoy to others."

When Xiao Fuxuan heard this, his face was instantly paralyzed.

He actually didn't have any expression on his face, but when he mentioned the boy, he immediately understood the reaction as if he had suffered a lot, which was especially funny in Wu Xingxue's eyes.

"It seems that Tianxiu has been tortured a lot." Wu Xingxue said.

The smile in his eyes could not be hidden, Xiao Fuxuan looked down at him, and said solemnly: "It seems that the scourge of King Ling is to let the Court of Rites come and torture me again."

Wu Xingxue: "..."

Who said that Tianxiu was a man of few words and cherished words like gold?

He flatly denied it: "Of course not."

Xiao Fuxuan: "What is that?"

King Ling let out a "huh" in his heart, and couldn't make up any more words, so he could only bend his eyes and smile, and said, "I said it all, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously. If the Court of Rites really goes to harm you, you can settle the score with me again." Not too late."

With a hook on his back, the two little boys behind him were swept out by an unknown wind.

The little boy was confused: "?"

Before they could ask any questions, Wu Xingxue poked the back of their heads and pushed them forward.

The little boy had been taught some conditioned reflexes by him in the past two days - he poked the back of the head and began to say farewell.The two little things raised their faces immediately, and said crisply to Xiao Fuxuan: "I think the lord is busy, and my lord is also busy, so there is no further delay, let me go!"

Tiansu: "..."

The moment Wu Xingxue turned around, thinking of Tianxiu's last indescribable expression, he couldn't help laughing.

In the three days since he came back from the world, it was the first time he laughed like this.

He walked in the direction of the spring breeze in plain clothes, his ironed snow robe with silver patterns swept behind him, and the boots that were occasionally exposed were all silver, which blended perfectly with the wind and smoke of the fairy capital.

The little boy was stunned, and instantly forgot what he had caused.Dian Dian chasing after one after another, curiously said: "My lord."

Wu Xingxue let out a lazy "hmm".

The little boy asked: "Does your lord have any festivals with your lord Tianxiu?"

Wu Xingxue: "How come? No."

"Is your lord on good terms with Tianxiu?"

"No. First time seeing you."

"what?"

"What are you?"

It was only when Wu Xingxue walked that he realized that he and Xiao Fuxuan had no politeness or pleasantries, and even omitted the self-reported family name. It really didn't seem like the first time they met, so it's no wonder the little boy was curious.

In the end, the little boy said something else: "Do you know who an adult is when you meet him for the first time?"

Wu Xingxue said: "It's easy to recognize, the word Ci on the side of his neck has not disappeared, and the word 'free' is also on the sword in his hand."

The little boy let out an "oh", and then a second question mark popped up: "Then why does he know who you are, my lord? You don't have a sword with you."

Wu Xingxue paused.

Indeed, he didn't wear the mask he usually wears, he didn't have a spirit sword hanging around his waist, and there was no writing on the side of his neck.Why do you know who he is so sure?

He was stunned for a moment, then turned around.

At this time, the white jade steps and the Lingtai are far behind, leaving only distant shadows.He saw Xiao Fuxuan's tall back walking through the last few steps, hidden in the clouds.

***

Wu Xingxue originally thought that an innocuous joke would end there, and the relationship between him and Xiao Fuxuan would not be much different from other people in Xiandu.

It is enough for him to remember the past Yuanyuan. He doesn't want the other party to remember those, so naturally he won't be too enthusiastic because of it.

The dignified spirit king is very lazy, he loves to laugh and amuse others, but he is never enthusiastic.

On the contrary, rumors spread inexplicably in Xiandu, saying that Tianxiu and Lingwang had an unusual relationship.

When Wu Xingxue heard these words, his face was full of question marks.

Wu Xingxue was going to go out that day, but was lured back by Mrs. Sang from Li Pavilion.

The other party carried the wine picked out of the wine pool and told him the rumors, which made Wu Xingxue confused: "Why is the relationship unusual, please speak clearly."

Sang Feng said: "It was the day when you went to our Court of Rites, someone said that they saw you and Tianxiu talking for a long time at the white jade steps in front of the altar."

Wu Xingxue: "Then."

Sang Feng: "There is no more."

Wu Xingxue: "?"

Lord Ling Wang was full of confusion: "Then how did the rumor spread?"

Sang Feng patiently explained: "Tianxiu Shangxian cherishes words like gold, and being able to speak for a long time is the rarest of the rare. It is said that Tianxiu said several words that day?"

"..."

King Ling said in his heart that there is something wrong with you.

He said in a bad mood: "Do you usually calculate the relationship by the number of sentences? Talking more is good, but talking less is bad? If you do this calculation, the best relationship with me is Lingtai Tiandao."

Sang Feng: "..."

When the immortals heard the way of heaven, they were more or less respectful, fearful and afraid, and would never bring it out with such a casual sentence.Sang Feng opened and closed his mouth for a long time before saying: "Your Excellency, don't make such a joke."

He paused, and answered Wu Xingxue's first half sentence: "Naturally, we don't count our relationship based on how much we talk. If we really want to count... it depends on how often we go to and from the palace."

Wu Xingxue concluded for him: "Are you visiting?"

There is nothing wrong with Sang Feng Xindao, so he simply followed his words: "Yes, those who can visit even if they have nothing to do, naturally have a close relationship."

Wu Xingxue said "Oh" again, and said with a smile, "Then you and I are closer than Tianxiu."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and turned the wine cup on the table lightly with his fingers.

He still had a smile on his face, but there was a subtle feeling in his heart, it couldn't be said that it was emotion, regret, or both.

The taste is fleeting.

Wu Xingxue took a sip of the light wine while holding the cup, and joked, "At least I've been to your Court of Rituals. As for Tianxiu, I don't know where he lives."

Sang Feng was stunned, he clinked his glass at him, and said in a breathless mouth: "Let's not talk about other things in the Rige Pavilion, none of the immortal palaces knows better than us, and this is what is recorded every day. Tiansu Shangxian lives The place is called South Window, and it’s quite far away from you.”

"A few years ago, you meditated behind closed doors in the palace, and you didn't know anything. Xiandu had a period of time when the aura was extremely unbalanced, and two vortexes appeared."

At that time, all five senses were weak, and Wu Xingxue really didn't know about it, and it was the first time I heard about it today: "What do you mean by two vortexes?"

Sang Feng said: "The point where the spiritual energy is the most prosperous and the weakest converges, like two eddies in the sea. For the sake of convenience, Menggu and I both call it that, and we are used to it. Needless to say, you know that the most spiritual energy is the Lingtai .After all, it is a place to communicate with heaven. As for the worst point..."

Sang Feng paused, and Wu Xingxue said softly, "Under the south window?"

Sang Feng nodded: "That's right, it's there."

Wu Xingxue frowned: "Does he know?"

Sang Feng said: "I know, he chose the residence by himself."

"When Tianxiu was summoned, it was the most obvious few days at that point. It is said that anyone passing by can see that place is extremely dark and full of evil spirits. So no one wants to go to that place." Sang Feng said, "Isn't there a saying among the people? Use poison to fight poison, and kill to stop killing. It is said that in such a place, you have to rely on people with more evil spirits to control."

But how many immortals who ascended normally have evil spirits?Not to mention the evil spirit that can compete with that point.

"It's not impossible to let people from the Lingtai, such as Xianshou Huaxin, press it. It can be effective for a while. But it can be done in a few days, and a few months. How about years and decades? The evil energy is exhausted. No one can stay on it for a long time..."

Sang Feng paused and said: "But Tianxiu can."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "The first time I saw Tianxiu, the evil spirit on his body was really heavy, so heavy that I doubted that what I saw was not a fairy, it was just like... like... ..."

He looked like someone who came out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood with a sword in hand.

Sang Feng didn't think it was a good word, and he didn't like to speak ill of people behind his back, so he hesitated for a while, but swallowed the words.

But even if he didn't say it, Wu Xingxue could almost guess what he meant.

"He really used evil to suppress evil. Ever since Tianxiu lived there, the place has become clear. Except for some cold fog lingering, there is no shadow of the extremely dark back then."

Sang Feng gestured with both hands and said: "His south window is exactly symmetrical with the Lingtai. Each town is located in one place, and the entire fairy city can be stabilized. Without him, the fairy city may not last for a few years, and it may collapse one day. If not, the Taiyin Mountain and the Immortal Pagoda will suffer together, so it will be a disaster for the world."

Wu Xingxue listened, but didn't say much.

He was even more dazed when he heard Sang Feng muttering, "I don't know why a Shangxian is so evil."

Others don't know it, but he knows it very well—this kind of evil spirit is only possessed by generals who have been generals for several lives, who have been on the battlefield until their death, and have countless souls who have died under the sword.

Not only did he know, he had seen it with his own eyes.

He had seen how Xiao Fuxuan in his previous life carried a sword through the wilderness full of dead bodies, and thinking about it now, he could still smell that smell.

It was strange that the general was covered in blood, but what he smelled was not blood.It's hard to describe the smell, but the moment he smells it, he always thinks of cold iron and winter.

"My lord." Sang Feng suddenly said, "You are very patient today."

Wu Xingxue came back to her senses quickly, and looked away from the window.

He put down the cup between his fingers, and said angrily, "What's the matter, I'm usually not patient enough?"

Sang Feng thought for a while and said, "You never asked me to say such a long word."

In fact, it's not that no one has ever said such a long speech, but that he rarely asked questions in the past, so others naturally wouldn't talk eloquently, and everything he said was to the point.

Wu Xingxue turned the rim of the cup, but said nothing.

When others mentioned Xiao Fuxuan, he would indeed look more and listen more.But he never put it on his face, even the little fool who followed him day and night... the little boy didn't notice it, and he didn't expect Sang Feng to click it unintentionally today.

Wu Xingxue was also taken aback.

But he felt that this was very normal, after all, there was a long history.He rushed to Sang and said: "After all, it is Tianxiu. I have heard you talk a lot, and I am also a little curious."

Sang Feng nodded, thinking that it made sense.

***

What Sang Feng didn't know was that that night, the "only a little bit curious" King Ling didn't rest, but went out in thin clothes.

The two little boys asked curiously as they followed, "Master, where are we going?"

The adults replied in a low voice: "Walk casually."

The little boy said "oh".

Unexpectedly, they crossed most of the fairy capital just by walking casually.And their adults seem to be very clear about the direction to go, and they are not casual at all.

It wasn't until Wu Xingxue stopped by a certain jade bridge and looked towards a palace across a winding sky, that the little boy realized that their trip was indeed purposeful.

"My lord, where is that?" The little boy didn't quite understand, followed his gaze to look over there, and even shivered quietly, "It's so dark over there."

Wu Xingxue said: "Are you two little things tight-lipped?"

The little boy pursed his lips and whined twice, indicating that he was very tight.

Wu Xingxue smiled and put away her expression, then replied in a low voice: "That palace is called Nanchuangxia."

I don't know if that name was chosen by Xiao Fuxuan, and I don't know why he chose such a name.

Wu Xingxue had never passed by here before, so she never knew that this place can be so dark at night, so dark that it doesn't seem like it is in Xiandu.

In fact, if you look carefully, there are lights in the palace.It's just that the lights are shrouded in gray cold fog, and from a distance, the light is faint.

Sang Feng said that in the past two years, this place has improved a lot.So it's hard to imagine what Tiansu was like when he first moved in.

That was... so deserted.

***

Early the next morning, as soon as Sang Feng arrived at the Li Pavilion, he found a figure standing in front of the pavilion, tall and tall.

Sang Feng rubbed his eyes vigorously, and said after a while, "Master Ling Wang? Why are you standing here?"

He opened his mouth, counting the time, but couldn't figure out why a person like King Ling who doesn't like to visit would stand at the gate of the Court of Rites waiting for him at this time.

This whole day, Sang Feng felt very dreamy.

King Ling took the initiative to come to Li Pavilion to wait for him, maybe there is something urgent?

Unexpectedly, he welcomed King Ling into the door, and chatted for a long time, but he didn't hear the meaning of "something" at all, it was really just chatting.

Talking so much that Sang Feng was flattered and pinched his thigh at the same time, feeling that there was something wrong with it.

After drinking two jugs of wine, I forgot what was wrong, and only chatted.

Sang Feng is a caring old woman, and Li Ge is also in charge of miscellaneous affairs. He can talk eloquently when he speaks, and with a few words of guidance, he can lead the topic to the direction that someone wants to talk about.

When Sang Feng mentioned the words "Under the South Window", Wu Xingxue held the wine cup and smiled, saying to herself that she finally got on the road, but I was exhausted.

Following Sang Feng's words, he inadvertently mentioned: "So... Tiansu lives in that kind of place full of evil spirits. No one goes there on weekdays, and there is no second person in the house who can breathe. You have stuffed him there Once a boy, it didn’t work, so that’s all?”

Sang Feng: "..."

Facts are facts, but for some reason, he dare not answer these words, it seems that if he does, it will become his responsibility.

After a while, he made a vague "ang" sound, "What can I do then? Tianxiu's temper, I have nothing to do with it."

Wu Xingxue said unhappily: "I also said no, didn't you still torture me several times? Try harder."

Sang Feng: "I tried my best, and I even risked my life to make Meng Gu work harder."

Wu Xingxue: "Oh? How did you work so hard?"

Sang Feng scratched his face, looking like he had a toothache: "I'll let Menggu try a beauty trick."

Wu Xingxue: "..."

King Ling didn't speak, but Sang Feng said again: "Then Meng Gu told me that if she came up with such a bad idea, she would kill me alive."

"Are all your little boys the same style?" King Ling suddenly asked.

He actually wanted to ask "are they all so strict", but because of Sang Feng's face, he didn't say that.

Sang Feng didn't realize it, nodded and said: "Yes, they are very sensible."

King Ling said: "Well, you can bring a few to me tomorrow."

Sang Feng stood up: "What? Lord Lingwang is going to want those little boys again?"

"No." Ling Wang was decisive, and then said: "I will adjust it for you, and then send it to Tianxiu."

Sang Feng was very suspicious: "Can it be useful?"

***

It turns out that it really works.

Within two days, Li Pavilion sent a letter to Zuo Chunfeng. The letter was full of praise, and it could be seen that the person who wrote the letter was in high spirits.

The letter can be summed up roughly as follows:

"I brought those twelve little boys back. According to my lord's order, I ran away as soon as Tianxiu was away, and sent me to the outer courtyard under the south window. I waited in Li Pavilion for two days, and those little boys really didn't get sent off. Come back. If it was the past, once Tianxiu returned to the palace, those little boys would line up and come back obediently in less than a cup of tea. Menggu was stunned. It was the first time I looked at her face. With that look on your face, how on earth did your lord do it?"

The little boy finished reading with emotion, then raised his head and asked, "My lord, do you want to reply?"

Wu Xingxue said: "If you don't return, it's fine if it's done."

The little boy asked again: "So how did the adults do it?"

The adult didn't slip out of his mouth: "You guess."

Little boy: "..."

***

As a result, before the two little boys had time to guess, the answer came to them.

That night, Wu Xingxue was leaning on the side of the couch with her head propped up, pinching a few balls of paper to make something lively.Suddenly I heard a little boy running in and said, "My lord! There are people outside the house."

Wu Xingxue froze for a moment.

Generally speaking, if someone is sitting outside the Spring Breeze Gate, he will definitely feel it.It is really not easy for the immortals in Xiandu to be silent under his nose, even if he is absent-minded and not concentrating at the moment.

"Who is it?" Wu Xingxue straightened up.

Before the little boy answered, he felt the snow robe brushing past his face.His eyes blurred, and when he fixed his eyes again, there was no sign of his family spirit king on the couch, instead there were more voices in the courtyard outside.

Wu Xingxue didn't bother to walk through the door, she put on her clothes and came out from the wide window.

His figure was almost completely melted into the mist of the night, one moment he was still by the window, and the next moment he was at the gate of the outer courtyard of the palace.

He glanced out the door.

There are long strings of lights hanging by the door of Sichunfeng, a bit like the ones in the Luohuatai market, very bright.The lights of the light strings are intertwined with each other and form a piece, almost lively.

The extremely tall figure leaned against the wall, stood in the shadow of the lamp with his sword in his arms, his eyes downcast, waiting for the little boy to report.

It was Xiao Fuxuan, the Celestial Immortal of Tianxiu.

Wu Xingxue was startled, "Why are you here?"

Few people would come to his Spring Breeze, and even fewer people would come at this hour.It was really strange that the one who came was Tianxiu Shangxian who never paid any attention to anyone.

Tian Su turned his eyes and glanced at him, but didn't answer, but turned the sword in his hand, tapped the scabbard on the farther wall, moved his lips and said, "Come out."

"?"

Wu Xingxue was a little puzzled, and looked along his scabbard.

After Xiao Fuxuan finished knocking, a group of boys who were not as tall as Wu Xingxue's thighs lowered their heads and lined up in a long line. They came out from the corner of the wall and slowly gathered in front of Wu Xingxue.

Xiao Fuxuan said lightly, "Does it look familiar?"

Wu Xingxue: "..."

look familiar.

Wu Xingxue didn't need to count to know that there were exactly twelve of these little boys, and they were all given to Xiao Fuxuan by the Court of Rites.These little boys have been touched by him a little bit, so they are naturally familiar.

King Ling couldn't say it well, this posture was not for visiting.

Sure enough, I saw Tian Suchao raised his chin to those little boys, and said with a deep voice: "Someone said that if the Court of Rites really finds me, it won't be too late to settle the score."

"I just returned to Xiandu after some errands." He was still wrapped in the smell of wind and frost from the world, and after standing upright from the wall, he raised his sword and opened the long lamp, and said softly: "Now Come to settle accounts, is it too late?"
