Chapter 68

Liancheng is located in a strangely shaped stone formation, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to find the entrance. It is probably not the first time for Bai Zihua to enter the interior of Liancheng.

Like a paradise isolated from the world, there is such a vibrant treasure land as Liancheng in the desolate desert.

Along the way, all you can see are rolling yellow sand, or steep and sharp boulders. After entering the lotus city, you can finally see some green.

On both sides of the road, there are many poplar trees that are resistant to drought and wind and sand, and some big trees whose names are unknown. With the blessing of the shade, the city is much cooler than the outside.

Xiangsi walked all the way, the little shirt inside was soaked with sweat, it was very uncomfortable to stick to her body, she kept raising her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, her steps were a bit reluctant, almost unable to keep up with Bai Zihua's pace.

After walking a few steps, an old man by the roadside was roasting mutton, and he walked around nearby with his tongue sticking out the heat, provoking passers-by from time to time.Unfortunately, Xiangsi was suffocated by the heat and the smell of charcoal. He covered his nose and coughed, and his eyes were so smoky that tears flowed out.

A violent cough came from behind, and Bai Zihua, who had walked a long way in front of him, stood still. After a few seconds, he turned around and came back, and walked to Xiangsi's side. His sleeve protected her from the heat from the grill, and his other hand pulled her forward.After taking a few quick steps, away from the smoky heat and smell, he immediately let go of her hand and kept a distance of more than one meter from her.

The confused Xiangsi finally found out that Bai Zihua was deliberately alienating her, but she couldn't figure out why he would alienate her properly, and when she didn't understand something, she usually chose to ask questions directly.

"My lord, are you still angry with me?"

"No."

Bai Zihua threw out two words in a blunt tone, and stepped forward, not stopping to have an in-depth conversation with her.

"Really?" Xiangsi scratched his hair in confusion, trotted after him, grabbed his sleeve naturally, and muttered: "I'm not angry, why haven't I spoken all the time, and walked so stinkingly?" Come on, I've been chasing so hard."

"I've always had this expression, you're overthinking it." Bai Zihua replied without any ups and downs, and raised his hand, trying to break away from her hand, but she grasped it too tightly, not only did he not break away from her hand, Instead, he pulled her whole body forward.

Xiang Si didn't expect that he would forcefully raise his hand. Unprepared, he was pulled straight forward by his strength, and was about to fall face down, but fortunately he stopped his hand in time to support her.

"Let go, don't do this again."

Bai Zihua took out his sleeve from her hand, said softly, and continued walking without waiting for her answer.

"My lord is so strange..."

Xiangsi wiped the sweat off her brow, looking at Bai Zihua's indifferent back in bewilderment.

……

When walking to a huge lotus pond, there was an enchantment blocking the two people's footsteps, and they were able to enter after passing through a man.

The inside of the lotus pond is much cooler than the outside. There are many fountains and streams, and the gurgling water flows down the well-built canals.A closer look reveals that the entire interior layout is particularly poetic. There are many delicate patterns of flowers, birds, insects and fish carved on the pavilions, walls and pillars. Green bamboos with emerald green leaves can be seen everywhere. When the wind blows, they will make a soft rustling sound. .There are many exotic flowers and plants on the promenade, and many calligraphy and paintings are hung under the eaves. Most of the handwriting is the same, and it is estimated that they were written by the same person. This person is the owner of this paradise.

After watching the fresh things, Xiangsi began to feel uncomfortable with the sand and sweat sticking together on her body, so she pestered Bai Zihua to wash it off, but the latter had no choice but to let her and the servants wash it.

"My lord, I promise to be back soon!"

Being promised to wash away the dust all over her body, Xiangsi seemed very happy, waved at Bai Zihua, skipped and walked away.

"Go."

Bai Zihua seemed to have returned to his usual appearance, his icy expression softened a bit, and the eyes that looked at her were no longer icy.

"Then I'm leaving~"

"Ah."

Bai Zihua looked at her quietly, until he could no longer see her, then looked away, lowered his head and meditated for a while before continuing to walk in.

The lord of Liancheng is very young, named Wugou, he is his friend, and also his celestial friend, and he is the same as the Five Supreme Immortals.

The two hadn't seen each other for many years since the farewell that year, but when they met today, the relationship between them was not unfamiliar, they still set up a chess game as before, and sat facing each other to play chess.

When old friends meet again, reminiscing about the past is naturally the first thing.

Although Shangxian Wugou was in the desert far away, he was not far behind in the news of the inland affairs. He knew almost everything about Bai Zihua's every move in the past few years.

After a short talk, Bai Zihua suddenly held the chess piece and looked hesitant, it was the first time Wugou saw him showing such an expression, he was dazed and uneasy, his thin lips were pursed into a straight line, hesitant to speak but unable to make a decision of.

After a moment of stalemate, he spoke.

"This time I didn't come to you alone, I also brought a long-term disciple with me."

"Oh, I know."

"The heads of the Shaobai Sect and the Taibai Sect died tragically one after another. I came to Liancheng mainly to investigate this matter. I already have my disciple Hua Qiangu and her spirit insects with me. That disciple is too naughty and mischievous. Qian, taking her with you will slow down the progress of the investigation, so I want her to stay with you for a few days, and pick her up when I have time."

"Are you willing?"

Wugou said with a half-smile, and looked at Bai Zihua's hand hanging in mid-air, which was still hanging in the air.

"..."

Bai Zihua fell silent, and after a while, he dropped the chess piece in his hand heavily on the chessboard, and said coldly, "Why don't you give up."

"Really." Wugou looked at him, picked up a chess piece and put it on the chessboard, and said coolly: "Everyone in the six realms knows who doesn't know who doesn't know, Changliu has a beautiful female disciple, who attended the apprenticeship ceremony , the head of Changliu repeatedly wanted to accept her as an apprentice, but she still refused to give up, and afterwards called her to the Palace of Unrequited Love to accompany her day and night, and personally bestowed sword skills and magic spells, which is more affectionate than treating his own disciple."

"Gossip, catch wind and shadow."

Bai Zihua's eyebrows moved lightly, and the hand holding the chess piece paused again.

"Are you saying that the Changliu Mountain you manage is not doing its job properly, and you only know to spread those gossips all day long?" Wugou sneered, "The Immortal Sword Conference, the First Battle of Taibai, and the Shushan Rebellion, in front of the respected elders, in front of all factions In front of the head of the sect, under the watchful eyes of the people of the world, who is it that has repeatedly acted inappropriately and inappropriately towards that female disciple? You think that a gentleman is magnanimous, but you don't know that some subconscious actions have already occurred. You have sold your heart, and some things people do out of instinct will not lie."

"..."

Bai Zihua was silent again. After a long time, he put the chess piece back into the chess tank, raised his eyes, "I lost."

"Ah!"

Wugou smiled, a little ironically.

"I just lost, not to the point of doing anything wrong."

Bai Zihua looked at him calmly.

Wugou stopped laughing, and turned back to look at Bai Zihua, "You put her on my side, are you serious?"

"Seriously." Bai Zihua said in a deep voice.

Wugou stood up and clapped his hands: "I promise you."

"Thank you." Bai Zihua stood up, nodded slightly, and finally turned around and left without looking back.
