Xu Shuangce's forehead is smooth, her nose is straight and her lips are thin, and the profile of her profile is carved in the dark night.

He breathed across the top of Gong Wei's hair, and after a long time, he said slowly: "I don't know the origin of the love, how can I remember the year and day of this kind of thing."

Gong Wei quit after hearing this: "How can you not remember what year and day it was? I remember very clearly the first time I saw you."

Xu Shuangce said: "You were childish in nature back then, you had nothing to do with romance, you can't count."

Gong Wei retorted: "Why can't it be counted? Doesn't liking mean wanting to be with someone, wanting to protect him, wanting to give him all the good things in this world, so that he can live his life away from disaster and carefree?" ?"

Xu Shuangce didn't answer, but he seemed to have smiled briefly from his breath.

Gong Wei looked up suspiciously and asked, "Am I not right?"

Xu Shuangce said, "You are quite right."

Gong Wei then buried her head between the quilt and his neck, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "But there is one thing that I have been thinking about, but I still don't understand it."

"What is it?"

Sovereign Xu was ready to accept all inhuman questions. He lowered his head slightly. From this angle, he could see Gong Wei's eyelashes and the tip of his nose from top to bottom. Shimmering in the night.

But I heard Gong Wei ask: "If you like someone, shouldn't it be the spring breeze and the dawn moon, full of flowers?"

"yes."

"Then why every time I see you, in addition to being full of joy, there is always a little sadness and worry?"

Xu Shuangce was stunned.

"..." At that moment, it seemed as if the tide had swallowed his senses, he opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something sour, hot and bitter.

"We people... will be like this." After a long time, he said slowly.

"When people meet and interact with each other, if there is only joy in their hearts, that is ordinary liking. If there are many worries, sadness, jealousy, and injustice for no reason in addition to joy, it is a feeling that is deeper than liking. Even death can't let it go."

He lowered his head and stuck it between Gong Wei's hair, and said hoarsely: "This is the kind of feeling I have for you."

Gong Wei laughed and said, "Then I should be the same to you!"

But Xu Shuangce closed his eyes and shook his head. No one could hear the sigh in his voice: "I would rather you never know what that feeling is like."

That night, Gong Wei was half asleep and half awake, chasing after Xu Shuangce and talking a lot in a trance, as if he wanted to finish all the things he hadn't had time to say in sixteen years. He especially liked to mention his experience when Xu Shuangce took him down the mountain to play when he was a child. Ying Kai was busy that year and didn't have much time to take care of him. Xu Shuangce would occasionally take him away from Xunshu Palace to buy desserts and fruits in the mortal market. Gong Wei liked the atmosphere of fireworks in the market very much, and about three or five times he lost track of the time when he was playing, and it was too late to go back to Xunshu Palace, so Xu Shuangce had to ask the inn for a room to take him to sleep—in fact, he was arranged to sleep. When he wakes up in the middle of the night and asks for water, he can always see Sect Master Xu meditating in the room, with a clear glow and a cold moon, and a handsome face, like a hard and ruthless marble statue.

He only saw Xu Shuangce change his face once. It was the Qinhuai night light cruise on the Qixi Festival. Pedestrians on both sides of the strait crowded shoulder to shoulder. The young Gong Wei was a little over-excited and got lost in the crowd. When he came back to his senses, he found that he had been wrapped by night-walking ghosts and brought him to a broken bridge. . The solitary river of blood under his feet was submerged into the night, and all the people in the river were covered with human skin. Gong Wei was stunned for a moment, and before he could walk through the process and howl with his throat, he saw helpless sword lights piercing the sky and covering the earth, sprites and ghosts Disappeared on the ground amidst the bang, and then he saw Xu Shuangce's furious figure walking swiftly.

Before he had time to call Xu Bai, he was hugged tightly in his arms.

"I'm scared by you." Gong Wei closed his eyes so sleepy, and rubbed Xu Shuangce's chin comfortably: "The human skin in the river is quite interesting, and your expression is much scarier than the night walk of the ghosts." Yes. What were you thinking?"

Xu Shuangce said lightly: "I'm thinking about it, I must not lose you again in the future."

Gong Wei laughed, with a "huh" in his throat, and praised: "No wonder I haven't lost it since then."

—Have you really never lost it again?

Xu Shuangce's arms wrapped around Gong Wei's side, and his palms tightened on his left heart, which was where he was pierced by a sword sixteen years ago on Shengxiantai.

His gaze passed through the cracks in the bed curtain and looked at the murals hanging on the wall in the corner of the inner room—it was a fiery little fox playing the suona, lifelike and naive, but under the scroll was spraying a mouthful of old dripping blood .

Sixteen years ago in the Forbidden Palace, the late night when he caressed the corpse and wailed, that crazy, desperate, and heart-piercing self seemed to appear in the void again, and it was vivid and painful.

Xu Shuangce withdrew his gaze, Gong Wei was already half asleep, and even when he was sleepy, he still couldn't get enough of his thoughts: "At that time, whenever I wanted to kiss you, I would always get angry..."

Before the words were finished, he heard rustling sounds, and then the cool but soft lips came to meet him, forcing him to swallow the remaining words.

The lips and teeth were entangled, inseparable, even the teeth were swallowed and swept away, and the silver thread that was too late to swallow wet the corners of the lips.

Gong Wei was pressed between the mattresses that were as soft as clouds, and was forced to raise her head to meet this desperate and painful kiss, until the air in her lungs was about to be wringed out, Xu Shuangce finally let go slightly, and immediately kissed him. Pressed tightly in his arms.

The violent heartbeats of the two merged into each other, Gong Wei gasped and opened her eyes wide, and heard Xu Shuangce say in a low voice, "I won't lose it again."

Even if the future is destined to be **** again, killing obstacles will reappear.

It's nothing more than going to the underworld together.

boom—

The huge earthquake sounded again in the sky over Linnan, piercing the darkest night before dawn.

Ye Jinmen young master Wei Chixiao strode across the long corridor with a dignified expression and a windy robe. A Disciple of Xunshu Palace trotted behind him to barely keep up with him, until he staggered and stopped outside the closed study door, not even having time to catch his breath:

"Report to the lord! The young lord of Jinmen has something important to ask for an urgent visit!"

"Should be the lord!" Yu Chixiao clasped his sword and bowed his hands, and said loudly: "The sky above Jinmen has collapsed, Jianzong was invaded by the evil wind, and he has illusions in his body, and now he is unconscious!"

Both of them heard footsteps behind them and stopped in front of the corridor.

Ying Kai said hoarsely, "...Illusion?"

Yu Chixiao turned around in astonishment.

Under the gray sky in the early morning, Ying Kai was drenched all over, his face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot. But his expression was very calm, the corners of his lips fell naturally, and he held Ding Shanhai tightly in his hand.

The disciples of Xunshu Palace also opened their eyes wide in astonishment, thinking that the leader hadn't stayed in the study all night? When did he come out, why didn't the servants follow?

"Illusion?" Ying Kai asked again in the same tone.

"...Yes." Yu Chixiao immediately lowered his head and said, "It's because I wasn't cultivated enough to push Lord Jianzong away in time. The heavenly cave has been closed, but Lord Jianzong has a high fever and was still talking nonsense last night ..."

Ying Kai interrupted him: "Ascension to Xiantai?"

Yu Chixiao said in surprise: "Yes! Many words and sentences are vague, only the word Shengxiantai is mentioned repeatedly, how does the leader know?"

Ying Kai said "Oh" and didn't answer.

There was no emotion on his face, he seemed to be staring at the dust floating in the air, and after a while he raised his feet and said calmly: "Let's go, we should go and see."

The disciple of Xun Shu Gong kept his head down respectfully, but at the moment Ying Kai passed by, he caught something out of the corner of his eye and was slightly taken aback.

Ying Kai, who always had a neat appearance and strict self-discipline, had a few drops of dark red mud splashed on his robe and boots.

In the entire Dai Mountain, isn't it only in front of Dingxian Mausoleum that there is such red soil?

His doubts flashed away, and he saw Ying Kai rising up with his sword without saying a word, flying to the dark gray sky——

call!

A gust of wind blows from the sky to the earth. In front of the Forbidden Hall of Cangyang Mountain, the gray and white mountain forest swayed, making a sound like a sea tide.

On the bed in the inner room, Xu Shuangce withdrew the hand that had been pressing on the sea of ​​Qi between Gong Wei's eyebrows.

Because of the continuous infusion of a large amount of pure spiritual power for three hours, even the number one person in the world would inevitably feel tired, but he did not show it.

Gong Wei's pale face finally had a tinge of blood, Xu Shuangce stroked his cold lips silently, after a long while he finally got up and went to bed silently, but his sleeves were suddenly pulled.

When Xu Shuangce turned his head, he saw Gong Wei closed his eyes in the messy mattress, and asked softly, "...where are you going?"

After a long silence, Xu Shuangce said in a low voice: "The rain has stopped. Go pick a peach blossom for you."

The corners of Gong Wei's lips seemed to be slightly raised.

Xu Shuangce leaned over and kissed him on the tip of the ear, then got up and walked out of the inner room slowly, the golden light of the forbidden curse appeared in the hall, and disappeared in the jade bricks and glazed tiles in an instant.

It was already noon at this time, but the sky was gray and pale, and it seemed that it was not yet bright. Xu Shuangce's robe was neat, and he walked down the long steps in front of the hall, only to see that Wen Xiuyang had knelt down and waited for a long time, and behind him a disciple of Xunshu Palace also knelt and held up something, made of platinum and sapphire, it was the leader of Xunshu Palace print!

Now that the seal of the leader of the alliance is released, no Taoist sect in the world dare not follow. The disciples of Xunshu Palace lowered their heads and said impassionedly: "Report to Sect Master Xu! Last night, the golden gate collapsed, and the evil wind appeared..."

Immediately afterwards, two understatement words above his head interrupted him: "I know."

Know?

The disciple was stunned for a moment, seeing Cangyang Sect Master's ivory-colored robe passing by his side, without even stopping, he went straight to the distant forest.

Wen Xiuyang looked at his nose, nose, nose, and heart and just pretended not to see, while the disciples of Xun Shugong knelt on the spot in a daze, not daring to move. After a while, the figure of Sect Master Xu finally walked back slowly from the mountains and forests, the mighty sword hanging by his waist, but holding a peach blossom in his slender hand.

Cangyang Sovereign twirling the peach blossoms with his sleeves brushing the mist of the pines, how this picture is out of this world, like a banished fairy, but the disciples of Punishing Shu Palace only feel a chill from the heart, it is a kind of grumpiness when facing the strong However, fear was born: "...Xu, Sect Master Xu..."

Xu Shuangce didn't look at anyone, went up the stairs and returned to the sleeping hall, and the doors of the hall were closed one by one behind him.

The two stood upright and knelt for another quarter of an hour before the palace door opened again. Sect Master Xu's tall and straight figure finally appeared in front of the two of them, and the peach blossom with rain and dew in his hand had disappeared.

He asked, "What's the matter?"

The disciples of Punishment Palace are afraid to speak loudly now: "Yesterday... last night, the sky collapsed at Jinmen, and Jianzong was invaded by the evil wind, and he was unconscious. The lord has already gone to see it, and I ask lord Xu to discuss important matters. The lord is waiting for you at the Golden Gate..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Shuangce had already passed him, and said calmly, "Let's go."

It's that simple?

The disciples of Xunshu Palace were already prepared to give a generous speech and kneel for a long time, but when they heard the words, they almost couldn't believe their ears, and hurriedly got up to follow.

·

Yejinmen is located in Linnan, and it is one of the six great families of Xianmeng, with great masters coming out in large numbers. The stretching buildings stand on the mountain, and a vast dolomite platform has been opened up in the middle of the mountain near the lake. Ancestral halls, main halls, Qionglou, and Guangsha are dotted with grandeur and majesty.

Probably because Jianzong was unconscious, there was an uneasy atmosphere over Yejinmen, and the Yejinmen disciples on both sides of the square bowed their heads and held their swords, standing silently. The young master, Wei Chi Xiao, had already been ordered to wait on the broad marble steps in front of the main hall. Seeing Xu Shuangce falling to the ground, he held his sword and bowed, "Sect Master Xu."

"Where are people?"

"Jianzong hasn't woken up yet, and the leader is helpless."

Xu Shuangce put the sword in his hand: "Lead the way."

For some reason, Yu Chixiao looked up at Xu Shuangce, hesitated for a while before turning around and saying, "Please."

Entering from the main hall, turning two winding corridors, facing the inner room, the time for just a cup of tea came to an end. Yu Chixiao stood still and made a gesture of invitation. Unexpectedly, Xu Shuangce did not push the door open immediately, but stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at him with dark eyes, and asked unexpectedly: "Do you have something to say just now?" Want to tell me?"

Yu Chixiao didn't expect Xu Shuangce to be so sensitive, so he was stunned: "I..."

Between the young master of Ye Jinmen and the most powerful person in front of him, there is always a kind of inexplicable jealousy and tit-for-tat confrontation, just like a young and strong lion sharpening its sharp claws secretly, but on the surface it has to obey Ruler of the lion pride.

He hesitated for a moment, but his intuition and consideration of the current situation prevailed, he lowered his head and said, "When I went to punish Shu Gong today..."

At this moment, the door of the room was opened, and behind the door was Ying Kai's tired and calm figure: "Shuang Ce is here?"

Yu Chixiao's voice stopped abruptly.

Ying Kai said: "Come in, I have something I want to ask you." Then he turned to Yu Chixiao, and ordered gently and unquestionably: "Don't keep anyone within a 100-meter radius, all of them should be dismissed, and you should go down to rest first. "

Yu Chixiao bowed and bowed, and retreated.

Passing through the two screens in the inner room, I saw that the captain on the bed, Chi Rui, was unconscious, with golden needles pierced in several important points on his head. I don't know if he is still immersed in the illusion, the muscles all over his body are tense, and his brows are tightly furrowed, like a trapped beast with its head thrusting left and right but unable to break free.

Ying Kai stood by the bed and said, "Mu Duozhu came to see it in person, and I gave him an injection, but it didn't help."

Xu Shuangce asked: "You came to me to see his illusion?"

Ying Kai didn't look back, and after a long time, he said slowly:

"Ascension to Xiantai? I have already seen it."

Although he had a premonition along the way, when he heard it with his own ears, Xu Shuangce closed his eyes suddenly.

The big room was silent, the two just stood one after the other, half a foot apart from each other, neither of them spoke.

The cigarette curled up from Jin Rui's head, and only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard in the room. After a while, Ying Kai said, "Shuang Ce."

"Um."

"If you have a friend who hates the world, has serious obstacles to killing, ignores medicine and stone, and kills with all his hands. Do you think he deserves to die?"

"..."

Xu Shuangce rolled his Adam's apple up and down, and finally uttered a word hoarsely: "Yes."

Ying Kai turned his back to him, unable to see his expression clearly. For a moment, the image of the leader's back was frozen, as if his breathing and heartbeat had stopped, and his whole body was motionless; gradually his shoulders began to tremble, the frequency became more and more obvious, and he became more and more unable to restrain himself. It is becoming more and more difficult to restrain myself.

This is simply too unusual.

Ying Kai has never shown such an appearance in front of people in his life. He seems to be about to collapse, or to explode some kind of emotion recklessly, but he clenches his teeth firmly and straightens his back forcibly. .

"Ying Kai? You..."

Then Xu Shuangce was interrupted.

Seeing that Ying Kai finally turned around, his face had returned to calm, except for the dense bloodshot eyes, he couldn't tell what he had just experienced.

He smiled, and in that smile was a bit of exhaustion and boredom that had been burned to ashes and then cooled down, as well as a little weird, and then threw the bronze wedge box that he had been holding tightly in his hand in front of Xu Shuangce:

"Is this the fact that you have been hiding from me, Kitagaki?"

— Beiyuan.

The two characters landed heavily, as if there was a silent bang.

Xu Shuangce's originally pale face turned even paler, as if he wanted to explain something, but he had nothing to say, so he could only utter two words: "Ying Kai..."

Ying Kai yelled to stop: "Stop!"

Xu Shuangce's footsteps were fixed in place, and the hand holding the sword couldn't help trembling slightly.

The air in the room was terribly oppressive, as if a sword was about to explode in the next moment. Ying Kai's chest rose and fell violently, and he stared at his hand holding the sword: "What do you want to do now?! Untie the sword!"

Xu Shuangce defended himself in a low voice: "I didn't mean to resist..."

But with a clank, Shanhai unsheathed, and Ying Kai's tense voice interrupted him: "Give me the sword!"

There is a strong smell of gunpowder between the two, and they may lose control at any time and explode at any time.

Xu Shuangce hesitated again and again, and finally took off the sword of reluctance and handed it to Ying Kai.
