Cold Sword Perched Peach Blossom

According to previous calculations, if you travel overnight and day and night, you will be able to return to Kunlun in about [-] days.It's a pity that Lin Rufei fell ill suddenly, which forced the schedule to slow down.No matter what Lin Rufei said, Fuhua Yurui would not continue to make him tired. In desperation, Lin Rufei had no choice but to drive during the day and rest at night, slowing down the schedule.

Wu Ao didn't have any objection to this, but only told Lin Rufei to take care of her body. Lin Rufei was thinking about Gu Xuandu in her heart, and just wanted to go back sooner.

Just stop and go like this, rushing on the road during the day and resting at the inn at night, finally getting closer and closer to Kunlun.

One night, Chi Yu, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared, still holding the cub in his mouth.The little cub was much older than before, but when he saw Lin Rufei, he still screamed excitedly, wanting Lin Rufei to hug him.

Lin Rufei hadn't seen the kitten for a long time, and she missed it a little, so she reached out and hugged the kitten in her arms, stroking its soft hair.

Chi Yu sized Lin Rufei up and down, narrowed his eyes and said critically, "Why have you lost so much weight?"

Lin Rufei said, "Have you lost weight?"

"Yeah." Chi Yu said, "Have you been abused?"

Lin Rufei smiled and said, "It's just that I've been ill for a while..."

Chi Yu said, "I'm going back."

Lin Rufei was taken aback: "Are you leaving now?"

"Well, it is old enough. Although it is still very dependent on you, it also knows that you are not its biological father." Chi Yu yawned, landing on the ground with his front paws, and stretched his body lazily, "Otherwise, I really want to Leave him here."

Lin Rufei said: "That's a pity, I wanted to invite you to my house."

Chi Yu said: "Forget it, depending on the direction you are going, you are getting closer and closer to the big formation. I am a monster, so I dare not go any further."

Lin Rufei said: "Great formation? You mean... Tianjun's big formation under Yaoguang is on Kunlun?" He seemed to realize something, and suddenly opened his eyes wide.

"Yes." Chi Yu looked at Lin Rufei strangely, "You don't even know about this?"

"I don't know." Lin Rufei shook her head, "Everyone only knows that the big formation is on the Yaoguang Continent, but they don't know where it is. Maybe it's to prevent people from destroying it..." This big formation is only effective for the monster race. The closer the monster race is, the stronger the effect, so it may be human beings who destroy the formation.Because of this, Tianjun never announced the location of the great formation.

Chi Yu said: "Okay, then I'm leaving."

"Wait." Lin Rufei called out, "I still owe you a request, why don't you say it now?"

Chi Yu tilted his head: "I don't have anything good to ask of you now, just keep it, in case you become a powerful character in the future."

Lin Rufei smiled and said, "What if I die in the future?"

Chi Yu gave Lin Rufei a white look: "Then consider it a loss for me." He jumped into Lin Rufei's arms, took the reluctant cub in his mouth, and jumped onto the window wagging his tail.The little cub's eyes fell on Lin Rufei from the beginning to the end, the reluctance was too obvious, it seems that even if it has its own mind, it still has a special feeling for the first person it sees after hatching. obsession.

"Remember to live." Before leaving, Chi Yu did not forget to tell Lin Rufei, "Look at how skinny you are, tsk, I always feel that I am doomed."

Lin Rufei just smiled and waved at him: "Be careful."

Chi Yu snorted, turned his head and jumped out of the window. As soon as he went out, Fuhua and the others came in, holding the hot soup for Lin Rufei in his hand, and said suspiciously: "I just heard that Chi Yu The voice is gone, is he back?"

Lin Rufei: "I just left, and said I'm going back to the demon world."

"Oh." Fuhua Yurui showed a look of disappointment on his face, "I'm leaving now, I haven't said goodbye to him yet." The two of them have completely regarded Chi Yu as a cute big cat, stroking their fur every day, Feelings come out.Hearing that Chi Yu was going back to the demon world now, he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

Unexpectedly, just as the two of them finished talking, Chi Yu, who had already left, poked his head out from the outside, and let out a rough meow.

Looking at this scene, Lin Rufei almost couldn't laugh out loud.

The final result was that Chi Yu enjoyed another half an hour of stroking the pistils of the floating flowers, and then left reluctantly, saying that he didn't know if he would have the chance to meet such a lovely little girl again in the future.

Lin Rufei said let's go, if you look a few more times, you won't send the little girl to you.

Chi Yu snorted, held his son in his mouth, and walked away with his head upright.

Lin Rufei looked at his back, the smile on his face gradually faded, and asked how far Fuhua was from Kunlun.

"There are still seven or eight days." Fuhua said sadly, "Young master, why are you in such a hurry to go back? The second young master will definitely feel distressed when he sees you like this." In just a dozen days, Lin Rufei almost She lost a lot of weight. At first glance, it seemed that she was suffering from the wind and cold caused by the exhaustion of the horses and horses. However, based on what Fuhua knew about Lin Rufei over the years, she always felt that there was something hidden in her young master's heart.But no matter how they asked Lin Rufei, she refused to say anything.

"I'm just a little homesick." Lin Rufei smiled.

Fuhua still wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it down and let out a faint sigh.

Lin Rufei was the only one left in the room again. Lin Rufei was sitting by the window, looking at the scenery outside, thinking about what Chi Yu said just now.It was the first time he knew that the Yaoguang formation was actually set up near Kunlun, but exactly where it was was still a question.Does this large formation have anything to do with Wu Ao asking him to return to Kunlun?Lin Rufei was a little annoyed, and coughed vigorously, her thin shoulders trembling uncontrollably, like a thin candle trembling in the wind.

A glass of water was handed to him, Lin Rufei thought it was Gu Xuandu, and was about to smile when he turned around and saw Wu Ao.

"Ahem, why are you here?" Lin Rufei covered her mouth and said with difficulty.

"Drink some water first, Mr. Lin." Wu Ao said.

Lin Rufei frowned.

Seeing that Lin Rufei didn't reach out his hand, Wu Ao insisted on handing the water to Lin Rufei.Lin Rufei forcibly suppressed the itching, and said: "I have already promised you to go back to Kunlun, can't you stay away from me on weekdays?" As long as he was nearby, Gu Xuan would be suppressed by his heart, unable to show his appearance at all. .

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Wu Ao actually showed a hurt expression, gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Lin, then Gu Xuandu is really not a good person."

Lin Rufei said, "You've said it many times."

"But you never took my words to heart!" Wu Ao said angrily.

Lin Rufei looked at him with no expression on his face, Wu Ao gritted his teeth, his eyes were red with hatred, and he said: "Young master Lin, you don't know that the king of heaven may not fall, it's all because of that Gu Xuandu, blame that Gu Xuandu—”

Lin Rufei said, "Blame him?"

"Yes, it's all his fault." Wu Ao gritted his teeth.

"Why do you blame him?" Lin Rufei asked strangely.

Wu Ao said: "Although the body of Tianjun fell that day, his soul was still alive. Gu Xuan took Tianjun's soul. If I had given his soul to me, I would have been able to revive Tianjun. I don't even want to, I already knew that he had evil intentions, but I didn't expect..."

Lin Rufei was stunned when she heard this: "You mean Tianjun's soul is still at Gu Xuandu's place?"

Wu Ao said, "Naturally."

Lin Rufei said, "What happened next?"

Wu Ao said: "Later..." He glanced at Lin Rufei with a cold tone, "Later, Gu Xuandu used the soul of Tianjun to resist the catastrophe in order to ascend, and Tianjun's soul flew away..."

Lin Rufei stayed where he was. He didn't know whether what Wu Ao said was true or not, but he thought it was at least a third of the truth.Now carefully recalling the time when he and Gu Xuandu got along, from Gu Xuandu's words, it seems that there will always be an old friend who got along very well, and I don't know if that old friend is the Tianjun that Wu Ao said.

"So, Mr. Lin, you don't want to trust him anymore, okay?" Wu Ao approached Lin Rufei with an extremely humble and flattering smile, and he said, "Isn't Mr. Lin weak? Mr. Lin believes in me, I will definitely give Mr. Lin a healthy body, and by then, Mr. Lin will be the most powerful person in the world by relying on the powerful sword intent in his body."

Lin Rufei said: "So you haven't said, why did you help me?"

Wu Ao smiled and said: "Because helping Lin Rufei can make Gu Xuan unhappy, as long as he is unhappy, I will be happy."

Lin Rufei said: "I see, you can go."

Wu Ao was taken aback.

Lin Rufei said, "I'm a little tired."

Wu Ao heard that Lin Rufei was tired, so he didn't insist, turned around and went out from the window.Lin Rufei heard Wu Ao's words, and softly called Gu Xuandu's name, but no matter what he called, Gu Xuan didn't appear.Lin Rufei was a little disappointed, but she managed to cheer herself up and joked with herself: "It seems that Floating Flower Yurui finally doesn't have to worry, the hysteria is almost gone..."

Turning her head again, she saw the water Wu Ao had left on the table. Lin Rufei raised her hand to pick up the glass, took a sip, and felt the unbearable itchiness in her throat went away a lot.

A long journey is always tiring.Even though Fuhua filled the carriage with soft quilts, it was still bumpy. After a few more drowsy days, Lin Rufei finally arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

When I left here, it was still spring with lush flowers and grass, but when I came back, it was already late autumn.

The grass and trees were withered, and the grass on the treetops was all yellow, but fortunately, there were many fruits hanging on the branches. When Lin Rufei passed by the small town, he saw a persimmon tree whose branches were bent by the fruits.

Fuhua also saw it, and asked Lin Rufei with a smile if she wanted to try it.

Lin Rufei nodded, and said that it would be good to try it, Fuhua stepped a little, crossed the treetops, and when she came back again, she had a few more ripe persimmons in her hand.

Peeling off the thin skin reveals the plentiful flesh. Lin Rufei took a bite and raised the corner of her mouth: "It's so sweet."

"Yeah, it's so sweet." Yu Rui grinned contentedly, "I'm finally back, the candy corn outside doesn't always seem to taste right."

Fuhua joked: "Not quite right? I saw you eating He Wanxiang's candy corn, didn't you enjoy it? It ruined your teeth."

Yu Rui pouted and said, "Sister Fu Hua is really annoying!"

Fu Hua tapped her forehead: "Give me back the persimmon if you hate it."

"I don't!" Yu Rui snorted.

When they arrived at the door of the house, Lin Rufei felt much better. They happened to pass by the peach grove at the foot of the mountain. Lin Rufei also missed the peach grove, after all, it was there that he and Gu Xuandu first met.Although it is autumn now and the peach blossoms are gone, there should be some peaches, but I don’t know if this year’s peaches are sweet or not...

Just thinking about it, Lin Rufei heard Floating Flower outside the carriage screaming in surprise, "How could it be—"

Lin Rufei asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

"Peach, peach grove..." Fuhua said blankly, "It's gone."

Lin Rufei was stunned for a moment, and quickly lifted the curtain to look out the window. When he saw the scenery outside clearly, he froze in place as if struck by lightning.

I saw the peach blossom grove that stretched for more than ten miles before, but now it was all turned into charred embers, there was not a single peach tree, only scorched earth remained.

"Why did the Taolin burn down?" Yurui also saw the scene outside, and panicked, "Did it suffer from a fire?"

"I don't know." Fu Hua shook her head, "Let's... let's go back first, it's such a big deal..." She said and gave Lin Rufei a worried look.

Lin Rufei remained silent, silently looking at the scorched peach forest in front of her eyes, and after a long time, said softly: "Go back."

The good mood when I got home just now was all because of the scene in front of me. On the way back, the atmosphere in the carriage was terribly stiff.Although Yurui reluctantly wanted to say something funny to ease Lin Rufei's mood, but Lin Rufei couldn't laugh, and leaned against the corner of the carriage with her eyes closed, unwilling to speak.

Yurui also had no choice but to breathe a sigh of relief, looking at Fuhua in panic.Before they came back this time, although Lin Bianyu asked them to tell them in advance when they reached the foot of the mountain, they did not disclose their whereabouts in order to surprise Lin Bianyu and the others.Fuhua was a little strange before, but she didn't realize Lin Bianyu's good intentions until she saw Lin Rufei's favorite peach grove turned into that.It turned out that Lin Bianyu was only worried about his brother's sadness, so he wanted to come to the reception and hide the incident, but it was too late to say anything now, Lin Rufei had already seen Taolin's miserable appearance...

On the way back to the Kunlun School, Fuhua hurriedly sent a message to Lin Bianyu and the others, saying that they were back.Following the winding mountain road all the way to the mountain gate, he saw Lin Bianyu was already waiting at the gate ahead of time. He saw Lin Rufei's carriage, and with a smile on his face, he called out: "Xiaojiu!"

Lin Rufei in the carriage heard her second brother's voice, the worry on her face eased a lot, she lifted the curtain and said with a smile: "Second brother!"

After the carriage stopped, Lin Rufei jumped out of the carriage. Lin Bianyu saw him, looked him over carefully, and frowned again: "Why are you so thin?"

Lin Rufei coughed twice: "I came back too quickly, I'm tired and sick."

"What are you in such a rush for?" Lin Bianyu said, "I told you that when you come back, you must tell me in advance that you didn't tell me why you got to the gate of the mountain." He gave Fuhua Yurui a condemning look.

"Second Brother, don't blame them, I told them not to say anything." Lin Rufei smiled, not seeing much clues, "I want to give you a surprise..."

Lin Bianyu said: "You are back, that is the biggest surprise." He said, "Let's go, the banquet has been prepared, and we will wait for your return."

Lin Rufei asked, "Where's the elder brother?"

Lin Bianyu said: "The Kunlun sent some things these days, he is very busy, don't worry about him, he should come when it's time for dinner."

The two were talking and walked inside. Lin Bianyu asked about the people and things that Lin Rufei encountered along the way. Of course, the key point was whether anyone bullied Lin Rufei. If there was, he would definitely help Lin Rufei Get back on the field.Lin Rufei laughed when she heard this, and said, second brother, you don't have to worry, he wasn't bullied, but he still bullied a few people.

But Lin Bianyu glanced at Lin Rufei, and suddenly said: "Xiao Jiu doesn't want to laugh, so stop laughing."

Lin Rufei was stunned.

"It's the second brother's fault. He didn't protect the peach grove at the foot of the mountain." Lin Bianyu also seemed a little depressed because he couldn't avoid this topic, "I happened to leave Kunlun that day, and when I heard the news When I came back, half of the peach grove had been burned..."

Lin Rufei said: "How could it be... burnt..."

"Someone set the fire on purpose." Lin Bianyu gritted his teeth, "Fire is also a spiritual fire that cannot be extinguished by ordinary water. The mortals in the town can't help it. When Kunlun gets the news, there are not many peach trees left..."

Lin Rufei said: "The group of monkeys?" He thought of the golden monkey king who liked to tease him.

Lin Bianyu said: "The monkeys are fine. They are smart. They ran away before the fire spread. Now they probably went to other mountains. It's just that the peach forest is gone, and they won't come back..." He looked sadly. Lin Rufei, "Xiao Jiu, I'm sorry."

Lin Rufei forced a smile: "Second brother didn't set the fire, what did second brother say sorry for?" He forced himself to pull himself together, "Forget it, don't talk about it, second brother, tell me about these days Here, something interesting happened on Kunlun."

Lin Bianyu said some interesting things, and the atmosphere was finally not as stiff as before.

The family banquet was very sumptuous, and all the dishes were Lin Rufei's favorite. Wan Yao also came to check Lin Rufei's body carefully, and said that although she was a little thinner, she was healthier than before. Lin Bianyu doesn't have to worry, just prescribe some tonics for nourishment.

Lin Rufei didn't have a good appetite, but she was afraid of spoiling the interest of her family, so she tried her best to stuff something into her mouth.

Lin Bianyu noticed it, sighed and patted his head, saying that if Xiaolei didn't want to eat it, then don't eat it.Lin Minzhi frowned and asked who bullied Xiao Jiu, why didn't he look very happy.

"It's not the bastard who set the fire." Lin Bianyu gritted his teeth and said, "If I catch him, I will definitely skin him!"

"I'm afraid that person is not simple, but he doesn't know why he came here to set fire." Lin Minzhi said unexpectedly, "There is nothing good in the peach forest. It's really inexplicable, I don't know what it means."

Lin Bianyu also nodded.

After dinner, Lin Bianyu was afraid that Lin Rufei would be tired, so he hurriedly asked him to go back to rest.

After a long time, Lin Rufei returned to her small courtyard and saw the slender peach tree planted in the courtyard.He walked up to the peach tree, stroked its branches lightly, and called senior.

Gu Xuandu still didn't show up, he seemed to be just Lin Rufei's hysteria, now that the hysteria has been cured, he can't be seen anymore.

The peach grove was gone, but there was still such a single seedling left. Lin Rufei watered the peach tree, and then went back to the room to rest.

Although she didn't know that Lin Rufei was coming back today, the yard was still very clean, and it could be seen that someone had been taking care of it for a long time.There wasn't a single weed in the yard, and there wasn't even a speck of dust on the furniture, as if Lin Rufei had never left this place.

After late autumn, the weather turns cooler and the night wind is a bit strong.

Lin Rufei couldn't fall asleep, so she sat by the window in a daze.From his position, at a glance, he could see the little peach tree trembling in the wind, shaking its slender branches, looking extremely pitiful.

Lin Rufei called out: "Wu Ao."

He didn't know if Wu Ao was near him, but he wouldn't be too far away if he thought about it.

After the sound of Wu Ao, a black figure appeared in the yard, he said: "Young Master Lin." His voice was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect Lin Rufei to call him by his name.

"I've already arrived in Kunlun." Lin Rufei said, "What about your promise?"

Wu Ao said: "Young Master Lin, don't worry, when my work is done, the things will naturally be handed over to you."

Lin Rufei said, "I hope you don't break your promise."

"Of course I won't break my promise." Wu Ao didn't expect that Lin Rufei was going to talk about this matter, and he was a little disappointed, "That thing is just rubbish to me, and it's useless to keep it in my hand."

Lin Rufei hummed.

Wu Ao said: "Young Master Lin, is there anything else you want to say?"

Lin Rufei looked up at him, Wu Ao was standing in the darkness, his face was not very real, but Lin Rufei could still hear the expectation from his tone.So what was he expecting?Some doubts floated in Lin Rufei's heart, he said, "Wu Ao, did we know each other before?"

Wu Ao whispered, "I don't know."

Lin Rufei said, "Then do you hate me?"

Wu Ao said: "Of course I don't hate it."

Lin Rufei said, "Did you burn the peach grove at the foot of the mountain?"

Wu Ao was silent.

Lin Rufei said: "You burned it, right?"

Wu Ao said, "Yes, I burned it."

Lin Rufei smiled wryly. He wanted to say something, but he felt that it was pointless to say it. This Wu Ao was so powerful that even if he followed him up the mountain, Lin Bianyu, who had reached the eighth level of cultivation, never discovered his existence.For such a person, it is extremely easy to burn a peach grove, and I have nothing to do with him.

Wu Ao said, "Master Lin blames me?"

Lin Rufei said: "So what if I blame you, maybe I can still beat you up?" He waved his hand with little interest, "Let's go."

Wu Ao said, "Mr. Lin called me here just to ask this question?"

Lin Rufei asked strangely, "Otherwise?"

Wu Ao sighed lightly: "Young Master Lin, it's just a peach forest, why are you so sad, if you like it, I will plant another hundred-mile peach tree for you... as compensation?"

Lin Rufei laughed: "No need." He got up, and without waiting for Wu Ao to speak, he closed the window. Wu Ao watched Lin Rufei's movements and stood motionless on the spot, like a petrified sculpture.

Lin Rufei didn't care to pay attention to him, and went back to bed alone to take a nap with her eyes half closed.While half asleep and half awake, he seemed to see Gu Xuandu who hadn't shown his face for a few days, but Gu Xuandu's figure was much lighter than the previous few days. At first glance, only a thin layer of skin was left. shadow.

Lin Rufei's heart tightened, and he woke up from a light sleep. However, after he woke up, he looked around but couldn't see Gu Xuandu. When he looked up again, he could vaguely see Wu Ao through the window...still standing outside .

Is he still gone?Lin Rufei thought, no matter how she looked, she seemed very sad. Obviously, she should be the one who was sad when the Taolin was burned, so why did Wu Ao look a little pitiful.

The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: Xiao Jiu, he bullied me and burned my house down.

Lin Rufei rolled up her sleeves: What a bitch——

Wu Ao lit the torch: FFFFFFF burn you to death
