It was already afternoon when we came out of Xiuxian Pavilion.
That Wang Chunyao was a different woman from Li Xixian. She had a little baby fat on her round face. She was the same age as Lin Yanli, but she was half a head shorter.
Her voice is like the buzzing of mosquito wings. She is a very cute girl.
Before leaving, Lin Yanli specifically asked Aunt Wen to help keep an eye on Wang Chunyao. After all, such a weak and weak girl could easily be deceived.
When we came to the street, it was a time when there were a lot of people.
The two sat for a while in a teahouse.
There was a storyteller in the teahouse who looked to be in his forties, tall and thin, and wearing a black satin robe.
"Immortals may enter the clouds and fly without wings; they may ride dragons on clouds and ascend to the heavenly steps; they may transform into birds and beasts and swim in the clear clouds; they may sneak through the rivers and seas and soar over famous mountains; they may eat vital energy, or they may grow like grass.
; Or he may go in and out of the human world without being recognized by others; or he may hide himself without being seen.”
The storyteller mentioned this passage from "The Legend of Immortals". Lin Yanli once read this book when he was in the Thousand Demons Sect. It talked about the immortal family's magical powers and described the daily life of the immortal family.
Although the description is detailed, the author of this book is a mortal, and the content is still somewhat different from the real fairy life.
Lin Yanli ordered a red date sweet tea and sat in the corner listening to it with gusto.
Suddenly, the storyteller changed the topic, unfolded the fan in his hand, and said slightly mysteriously: "Do you want to hear the story of the Immortal Family of Mutian City?"
The tea-drinking guests around heard Mu Tiancheng and cast their glances one after another.
In the past few years, the most popular topic of conversation after dinner was Mutian City. They had heard a lot of stories about Mutian City from officials, and they had long been bored.
"Mr. Huang, how about a story? We are tired of hearing about Mu Tiancheng!"
Some listeners shouted.
The storyteller, who was called Mr. Huang by the audience, chuckled and said: "What I want to talk about today is the scenery of Mutian City's overhaul!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up with anticipation.
"Don't be impatient, please order another pot of tea and listen to me slowly..."
Lin Yanli listened for a while. The storyteller was telling a story about a sword immortal from Mutian City who killed a great monster in disguise. He was spitting and eloquent. If it weren't for the name "Chen Mo" used by the storyteller, Lin Yanli would have been shocked.
I thought this storyteller had also been to Mutian City.
"This Chen Jianxian was so arrogant that he swung his sword and the sun and moon in the sky were dimmed. All he could see was the bright stars of the Milky Way, and a moon-sized sky stone dragging the light of the sword towards him."
"Hey, this Chen Jianxian dragged the meteorite and hit it in the wave of ferocious beasts. Then he raised his sword and cut the head of a transformed demon into two halves. After he succeeded, he walked away and wrote on the top of the city, 'The Way of Swordsman in the World'
For me, my majesty lasts forever, and I feel happy..."
Lin Yanli became more and more shocked as he listened, feeling that the storyteller was about to give Chen Mok to Shinhwa.
Li Chang's ears were perked up, and he spoke every word. After a while, he couldn't help but ask: "Sister A Li, Senior Chen is so powerful that he can punch Kong Gu's palm. I heard that this Kong Gu is the same as Lao
A generation of swordsmen."
Lin Yanli rolled her eyes, raised her finger and poked Li Chang's forehead and said: "Storyteller, what you are talking about is a book and a story, so of course it is fake. Do you think Chen Mok has such ability?"
"Uh." Li Chang thought for a moment. In his memory, Senior Chen often drank tea with Senior Gu on the eaves. He always had a straight face and was a very serious person.
Lin Yanli sighed helplessly.
After drinking the tea, Lin Yanli headed back home.
Walking along the street, Li Chang kept thinking hard. If Lin Yanli hadn't frequently pulled the corner of Li Chang's clothes, Li Chang would have crashed into the arms of an old woman.
Arriving at Xiaomen Chengguan in the south, Lin Yanli handed over the jade plaque from Guanhai Academy. When the city guards saw the jade plaque, they quickly let him go without any hesitation.
After leaving the city gate, the eyes were full of peach blossoms. Li Yanli walked on the path with his little hands behind his back, and occasionally picked a peach blossom on a branch.
"Sister Ali."
Li Chang suddenly raised his head and called out.
"Um?"
Lin Yanli turned around in confusion.
"It's nothing, the flowers are so beautiful."
Lin Yanli frowned, and when she saw Li Chang's eyes dodge, she said, "No need to beat around the bush with me, just tell me."
Li Chang fell silent. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and raised his head and said, "Sister A Li, I won't go back with you."
Lin Yanli paused for a moment, and the peach blossom in his hand fell to the ground. It was blown away by the north wind and floated away.
Lin Yanli said with a serious face: "You have thought about it."
Li Chang nodded and responded: "Well, I've thought about it."
"not regret?"
“If you want to gain something, you must give something up, and don’t regret it!”
Lin Yanli fell silent, turned his back, and heard a voice: "The world is huge, and we might never see you again in this lifetime. Can't we wait until the trip is over?"
Li Chang's heart twitched.
"Okay, now that you have made a decision, stick to your heart and don't hesitate."
"Sister A Li, don't you ask why?"
Lin Yanli looked back and smiled: "Do I need to ask?"
Li Chang scratched his head and said, "That's right. Sister Ali is so smart, she must know it."
Lin Yanli waved his hand and said: "Ode to Shi Qi, wishing you happiness in the winter, blessings and warmth in the four seasons, and winds and crops rising. From now on, it is up to you to decide your own path. Remember the four words, Zhongyu, Loyalty, Devotion, Finally
, have a good rest of your life, cherish it."
Li Chang stared blankly at Lin Yanli's back walking away in the green woods. She didn't know where she got the courage to shout, "Sister Ali, I love you."
"ha?"
The girl who had already walked away suddenly turned back when she heard these words, her eyes widened and her face was full of astonishment.
"Can you say that again?"
The young man smiled helplessly, it turned out that Sister Ali didn't know anything.
"Sister Ali, the mountains and rivers are long, so cherish the journey!"
The girl shook her hand gently, and her back gradually blurred.
Li Chang stood there, looking at Lin Yanli's retreating back, and murmured: "Take care..."
As the sun set, the young man held a golden jade plaque in his hand and walked unimpeded to the palace.
In front of that dignified and grand palace, stood an old eunuch, the same one who accompanied Zhao Dan to send Lin Yanli and his party to Yunlin Academy that day.
When he saw the young man with a bright smile on his face, he rushed forward and said with a smile: "Master Li, your Majesty is in the imperial study."
Li Chang looked indifferent, reached out and patted the sword box behind him and said, "Do you need to remove the sword?"
The old eunuch said: "If it's someone else, of course he needs it."
The old eunuch's words were equivalent to telling Li Shang that he was special.
"oh."
Li Chang responded softly and followed the old lady to the imperial study room.
The old eunuch stood politely outside the door and said softly: "Master Li, go in by yourself."
Li Shang pushed open the door and walked into the inner room.
In the hall, the lights are bright.
In the interplay of light and darkness, there is a man sitting lazily on a dragon chair, leaning back, with his right leg resting on the table, his left leg bent, his knees touching his knees, his elbows resting on his arms, and his fingers slightly bent.
The corners of his mouth raised: "Little friend Li Shang, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
