Zuo Qiuliang, who was drinking, let go of Huo Yu and cursed: "Go away, if you go on a business trip again, I will also kill the Qing Qiu. I won't say this a second time."
The red-billed bird was relieved, and quickly chirped and flew towards Cao Tong, who was lying in the ward, and stood at the window, never leaving.
When I wanted to drink the wine from the pot again, I had already seen the bottom when I lifted it up.
"That's fine. You owe me some favors. One yard for the other. It's time to order some drinks." Zuo Qiuliang stood up and looked up at the thick clouds in the sky. He didn't see any movement, he just stomped his feet.
He stamped his feet and disappeared.
On the huge clouds in the sky, Lu Sancun was drinking wine leisurely, looking a little proud. The chessboard in front of him had been cleared, and there were chess boards placed on the left and right sides, with 108 black and white chess pieces each.
"Here, sit down."
Lu Sancun didn't seem to be surprised by Zuo Qiuliang's arrival, and the smile on his face became thicker: "Everyone says it's been a great autumn, how about it, how about such a world?"
Zuo Qiuliang was not polite, and sat cross-legged: "With twenty-two moves, I have some confidence. Why, I owe you three years in this world, and you only have three more chess moves, so you think you can definitely beat me?" The Taoist said
He stretched out his hand and said confidently: "Bring it here, it won't be a penny less!"
Lu Sancun laughed loudly: "They say you have lived for tens of millions of years, but why are you still so narrow-minded now?"
"Stop talking nonsense! I laid the groundwork seventeen years ago to play chess with a shameless person like you? You don't think it's embarrassing, but I think it's shameful!" Zuo Qiuliang's tone seemed a little angry.
Lu Sancun smiled and took out a jar of apricot blossom wine and threw it to Zuo Qiu: "Are you in the void realm?"
"Yes." The Taoist took the wine jar and started pouring wine into his own jug, doing so carefully for fear of spilling some wine.
"Then you're still at a loss? You got that nothingness?"
Zuo Qiuliang immediately lost his temper. After taking a sip of wine, he said angrily: "After so many years, you and I are the ones who are going to perish. How can we still compete for the morale of that child? Keep Xu Pei's sword guard in Funiu Town.
Use Xu Qingmu's broken Taoist heart to force me to take action, just for the sword in the void world?"
Zuo Qiuliang looked a little lonely: "Azhe, she has been dead for tens of millions of years, let it go."
Lu Sancun, who has never stopped chewing grass roots, has hollow eyes and a sad expression: "Yes, she has been dead for thousands of years, but when I think of her, I can't let go..."
"This revenge must be avenged!"
The two of them sat opposite each other in the clouds, looking at the empty and neat chessboard in front of them, both making moves.
After a long while, Zuo Qiuliang broke the silence: "Xu Qingmu lost this battle of heaven and earth, and naturally lost the inherited dragon energy of King Xu Yan. How can he enter the outer space to repair the Dengxian Bridge?"
Without bounded airspace, this Immortal Bridge cannot be repaired, let alone the misty Cong state of mind. This last gambling game in the world will be a complete failure.
Lu Sancun also came to his senses: "Who said Xu Qingmu lost the battle of heaven and earth?"
Zuo Qiuliang was a little confused, but Lu Sancun continued: "Seventeen years ago, I lost more than just Lin Xue's chess pieces." Lu Sancun picked up a black piece from the chess table next to him, and dropped it on
The warp two and four in the upper left corner of the chessboard continued: "Then Xu Pei and Xu Chengdi, the son of King Changling, are the real turning points."
After saying that, he picked up the chess piece again and placed it in the lower right corner opposite the chess piece in the upper left corner.
"Do you really think that except for you and me, everyone in this world is just a bastard? Not to mention Li Chengru, let's talk about Empress Cao who has covered her face again. She is holding flowers with her fingers in one hand, and she is very good at it. With her here, there is something on her right hand.
The Emperor of the Underworld, Qingminghua, can no longer jump."
Lu Sancun stared at the chessboard, seeming to be considering where to start the third chess piece:
"Just watch, soon, the Underworld Emperor's tail will be unable to be hidden. It's really strange that he can fall in love with a mortal woman. Underworld Emperor, Underworld Emperor, you are nothing more than that?"
But then he sighed:
"You and I are nothing more than that."
.......
--------------------------
It took ten days for Xu Qingmu, who had been wounded by the sword, to sit up reluctantly.
After all, Cao Tong didn't come to the bedroom where Xu Qingmu was staying. All the news was passed on to both sides with Li Chengru listening to it like a microphone. But I don't know if the old man did it intentionally or because he had a bad memory. In short, Cao Tong became very angry when the news was passed on.
He rushed into the room of Xu Qingmu who was still recovering, slapped Xu Qingmu directly on the face, and ran out angrily.
Xu Qingmu was slapped inexplicably, and he was a little confused. It was not until later that he found out that Xu Qingmu's somewhat teasing sentence "I want to see if you cry" was translated by Li Chengru into "I want to see if you are wearing underwear."
”.
Xu Qingmu, who was sitting on the bed but unable to move, looked at Li Chengru fiercely. The latter looked at his nose and heart, and shamelessly sat at the table, making noises, and drank a small drink leisurely.
After a long while, Xu Qingmu finally couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "If you lose this battle of heaven and earth, what will you do in the future?"
Li Chengru put down his wine glass: "Who said you lost?" Li Chengru stood up and kicked Bai Qi, who was dozing next to him: "Let's go and play."
Bai Qi bared his teeth at Li Chengru, trying to bite him, but Li Chengru ignored it and spoke again: "The few days you were unconscious, Chang'an City was full of storms. First, Xu Pei, who had won the battle, was summoned into the palace by King Xu Yan, and then the palace was filled with black fog.
Four. The young daughter-in-law Jiang Taozhi started fighting with King Xu Yan directly with a peach blossom stick. Later, the leader of the Ye Family Sword Tomb, Ye? came out with his sword, and a sword with a white rainbow nine thousand miles away, but he was faced with the same sword.
Xu Sanning was wearing a peach blossom stick, and the two of them fought fiercely in the sky above Chang'an City, and the battle continued for three days."
Xu Qingmu was a little confused. Why did Jiang Taozhi take action against King Xu Yan? Why did the Ye Family Sword Tomb dare to participate in the palace and take action?
Li Chengru took out his crotch. The old man had never gotten rid of the habit of scratching his crotch. In his own words, it was because he was so rich that he scratched his crotch: "Then your mother also raised her sword and unexpectedly...
Together with Jiang Taozhi, we attacked your biological father."
Xu Qingmu is even more incredible.
"King Changling and King Lingyi, who had been entrenched in the dark, also surrounded the palace overnight with the troops they secretly cultivated. A ghost next to King Changling killed anyone on sight. In just one night, King Xu Yan's personal guards were killed.
They slaughtered everyone, including those around your father who were also masters on the sword and martial arts lists, and almost all of them were killed or injured."
"This battle lasted for five or six days. In the end, your father was seriously injured, and your mother tried her best to protect him. He fled the palace and disappeared without a trace."
"Now, this Jiangshan's surname is still Xu, but you are no longer the prince. Oh, by the way, the night your mother fled, she asked Qi Chunfeng to send you a letter. Qi Chunfeng was also loyal. After putting down the letter
, and chased your mother all night long."
After saying that, Li Chengru took out a letter with a slight peach blossom scent from his clothes. There were only four simple words on the envelope: To Xu Qingmu.
Xu Qingmu breathed a long sigh of relief, suppressed some excitement in his heart, opened the letter, and read it carefully:
"Qingmu, when you read the letter, please don't be impulsive. My parents are sorry for making you lose your childhood. Your father sacrificed part of his soul and the Emperor Qingming for the throne. In order to protect you, I must not
I sent you to Funiu Town because I am sorry for you, mother."
"Over the years, Emperor Qingming's soul has become more and more powerful, and your father's waking time has become less and less. Finally, after Xu Pei won the battle of heaven, Emperor Qingming attacked Xu Pei in order to regain his body.
hand."
"I am the Palace Master of Lilan Palace. This is why I asked Jiang Taozhi to marry Xu Pei. It was because I watched the child grow up and couldn't bear to let him become a sacrifice."
"Then Xu Pei is not your father's biological child, so there is no winner or lose in the battle between heaven and earth. I have locked the dragon energy in Chang'an City with a secret method over the years. After you recover, you can get it on your own!"
"Xu Qingmu, this world still needs you!"
"Good boy, you have suffered so much. If there is a chance, mother would really like to hug you again..."
...
After reading the letter, Xu Qingmu stayed on the bed completely, speechless for a long time. Li Chengru stopped disturbing him, kicked Bai Qi, and the two left the room together. Bai Qi looked at Li Chengru: "What's wrong with my elder brother?"
Li Chengru looked up at Chang'an City. The sunshine was still the same and the scenery remained unchanged:
"Maybe... he has grown up."
The old man also sighed, in this torrent, who is not the ups and downs of grass and trees?
All lamented.
...
Three days later, Xu Qingmu finally got out of bed.
Opening the door, there was no one in the station. They might have all gone out, but the courtyard was a little deserted. Xu Qingmu bent down with some difficulty, put on his shoes, and walked around sitting on a bench in the courtyard.
He looked up at the dark night sky, his eyes dull.
A young man who grew up in poverty finally found his parents who he thought were dead. However, he didn't even have a stable and happy life, and lost news about his parents again.
These days, there have been too many blows to this young man. First, his childhood sweetheart, Lin Xue, betrayed him, and then he learned that his parents had worked hard over the years, and now they have come to an unknown end. He felt heartbroken.
Just as I was lost in thought, a soft voice came from beside me: "I'm sorry."
Turning his face, Cao Tong clasped his hands together unnaturally and stood beside Xu Qingmu with his head lowered.
"Is it because you slapped me?"
Cao Tong stood silent, just lowering his head. The evening breeze blew by, the girl's dress floated, and the fragrance came. Xu Qingmu took a deep sniff, and seemed a little satisfied:
"I am the one who should say sorry. I have suffered so much these years..."
The girl's tears flowed down unsatisfactoryly, as if her grievances had an outlet, and they poured out without reservation under the cover of the deserted night. The shoulders that were originally standing were slightly trembling.
"You... big bastard!"
The crying became more wanton. After all, Xu Qingmu's outstretched hand did not rest on the girl's shoulder. He just looked at the tearful Cao Tong so quietly.
It seems that I really haven't observed it carefully in these years.
Whether it was the red-clothed ghost mansion encountered on the road, the Green Lotus Space, or the life-and-death battle with Xu Pei, this thin and non-existent girl seemed to have been standing silently behind her, speechless.
When faced with danger, he will step forward.
After a while, Cao Tong's crying gradually subsided.
Xu Qingmu took a deep breath, stood up from the bench, and staggered slightly after touching the wound. Then Cao Tong held his arm and hurried forward to hug him, his voice a little urgent: "Are you okay?
"
Xu Qingmu, who had straightened her body again, happened to be close to Cao Tong's cheek, smelling the fragrance of virginity.
“It smells so good.”
Cao Tong blushed like a drop of water and turned his head slightly. Looking at the shy Cao Tong, Xu Qingmu no longer deliberately teased him. After Lin Xue's incident, the young man's character had grown a lot.
Looking at the rising moon, Xu Qingmu took a deep breath again, his eyes became sharp, he stretched his hand in the air, and drank softly:
"Here comes the sword!"
In an instant, the breeze blew, and a green long sword came out of the body, quickly spun in the air, and then fell into the young man's hand.
Under the moonlight, the cold light flickers.
"When I, Xu Qingmu, raise my sword again, all the people in the world will be like rotten dogs!"
The moon shines on the world, coating it with silver.
