Pingyang seemed to want to say something more, but after seeing the serious expression on Fang Zhengzheng's face, she didn't say any more after all, and just bit her lips again.
Silence, the sun sets, and the first stars light up.
Time passes slowly.
Gradually, the bright moonlight fell from the sky, casting a faint silver light on the two people's bodies, and cast two slender figures on the ground.
Fang Zhengzhi did not interrupt Pingyang's words, but Pingyang did not speak again. The two of them just leaned together quietly, looking at the bright stars and the bright moon in the sky.
After the rain, the grass was a little wet and there were water stains on the ground, but the fragrance of the flowers after the rain was even more intoxicating, with a fragrance mixed with earth and dew.
I don't know how long it took, Fang Zhengzheng's eyes began to slowly close, he hugged Pingyang gently, leaned his body against the stone, enjoying the quiet night and the intoxicating fragrance of flowers.
Pingyang's eyes narrowed slightly at this time, and his somewhat rapid breathing began to calm down, and a faint orchid-like wet fragrance came out from his pink lips.
The two of them lay like this, under the moonlight and stars, beside the cold pool full of cold air, on the grass covered with rain and dew, lying quietly.
The night didn't pass too fast, but it didn't pass too slowly either.
There is no noise or fighting, but both Fang Zhengyi and Pingyang have a kind of satisfaction on their faces, a kind of satisfaction with "quietness".
The bright moon gradually sets, the stars gradually disappear, and a pale golden sun shines from the sky, slowly illuminating the dim night and dyeing the sky with a faint golden red.
"Pingyang, today's ice soul... Huh? Who are you? You dare to break into Lingyun Tower!" An inappropriate voice sounded above the cold pool.
Breaking the silence of the night.
It could be heard that this was a woman's voice, and she was obviously a little shocked. After all, the scene before her eyes really made her unable to believe her eyes.
Pingyang actually snuggled up with an outsider, a man. This was something that had never happened since Pingyang arrived at Lingyun Tower.
However, she did see a man, and this man was lying together with Pingyang, lying by the cold pool, and he seemed to be asleep!
"Uh, it's dawn." Fang Zhengzheng slowly opened his eyes and looked at the rising sun that had emerged in the sky. It felt as if he didn't hear the sound above the cold pool at all.
"Well..." Pingyang's body still leaned against Fang Zhengzheng's. He did not stand up immediately, but opened his clear eyes slightly, and moved his pink mouth slightly.
"The weather is not bad today." Fang Zhengzheng continued.
"Yeah." Pingyang nodded again.
"Bold, can't you two hear my question? Pingyang, you are just a sin slave. You dare to seduce outsiders into Lingyun Tower. Do you know what your sin is?" The woman's voice sounded again.
"It's so annoying, how about we change places?" Fang Zhengzheng glanced at Pingyang in his arms, but still didn't glance at the woman above the cold pool.
"Where to go?" Pingyang asked.
"Go and accept the crime, didn't you listen to what she said? You are a sin slave now, and I am the outsider you brought in. According to the rules of Lingyun Tower, we will definitely not be able to escape now." Fang Zhengzheng said matter-of-factly. .
"Can't run?" Pingyang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he suddenly laughed, as if he was extremely happy: "Hahaha... Yes, we can't run."
Such a scene fell into the eyes of the woman in a green dress above Hantan, who was somewhat puzzled and confused. However, she quickly became alert and placed one hand directly on the long sword at her waist. , after all, she has never seen someone so happy after accepting a crime.
"Thank you." After Pingyang smiled, he didn't know why, but his expression suddenly became serious. He looked at Fang Zhengyi with his clear eyes, and there was a firmness in his eyes as if he was ready to die.
"Thank me? Why are you thanking me? Now I am the one who has violated the rules of Lingyun Tower. Even if something happens, I am just saving myself." Fang Zhengzheng shook his head, with a relaxed look on his face.
"I know." Pingyang nodded.
"Then let's go." Fang Zhengzheng stood up slowly, then stretched, twisted his buttocks, and briefly washed his face with the cold pool water.
He naturally knows the concerns in Pingyang's heart. Similarly, he also knows the expectations in Pingyang's heart. He also understands the various contradictions filled in Pingyang's heart.
Therefore, he did not choose to continue to comfort and persuade when Pingyang said those words. He just chose to wait quietly.
Waiting for the sun to rise, waiting to be discovered by the people in Lingyun Tower, waiting to be taken away and convicted, waiting for everything to move forward naturally.
As the old saying goes, the greatest simplicity comes to nature.
"As a powerful Saint Realm expert, I need to remind you that although I am just a sin slave, I am still very powerful!" Pingyang watched Fang Zhengzheng finally finish the tossing, and he also smiled, his face His expression was obviously much more relaxed than last night.
"So, I should hide behind you?" Fang Zheng asked rhetorically.
"Of course." Pingyang looked confident.
"Haha... Your Highness, Princess, must protect me later!" Fang Zhengzheng smiled softly and slowly walked towards the woman above the cold pool.
At this moment, the woman standing above the cold pool was stunned.
This was not because she was ignored by Fang Zhengyi and Ping Yang again, but because she actually discovered that Ping Yang had put on a brand new red dress. The most important thing was that the thousand-year-old cold iron shackles worn at Ping Yang's feet turned out to be...
broken!
broken? !
The woman's face turned pale. She was so surprised when she saw Fang Zhengzheng just now that she didn't notice the changes in Pingyang until Fang Zhengzheng and Pingyang stood up.
If it weren't for this...
How could she let Fang Zhengzheng wash his face leisurely by the cold pool
"You..." The woman looked at Fang Zhengzheng and Ping Yang who were walking towards her side by side. She subconsciously took two steps back, and at the same time, she drew out a long sword with a swipe.
"Execution on the spot? Lingyun Tower shouldn't be so arbitrary when doing things, right? I think there should be some rules and regulations. I'll go with you, but you have to bring me into the building and give me a chance to explain, right?" Fang Zhengzheng looked at the nervous woman in front of him with a smile on his lips.
"Stop! You... how did you open the thousand-year-old cold iron lock... chain..." The woman's long sword pointed directly at Fang Zhengzheng's throat, and her face turned a little pale.
"Chains? Oh, I understand, you want to tie me up, right? No problem, I violated the rules of your Lingyun Tower, come and tie me up!" Fang Zhengzheng looked stunned and stretched out his hands.
The woman moved away again with a panicked expression. She was still somewhat unable to react to such a cooperative "criminal" like Fang Zhengzheng.
"Not tied up?" Fang Zhengzheng stood on the spot and asked doubtfully.
"Tie!" The woman hesitated for a moment, thinking quickly in her mind. However, after a moment, she finally gritted her teeth and took out a silver-white chain from her arms.
After all, her status in Lingyun Tower is not high, and her strength is even lower than that of Pingyang. Therefore, for her, the advantages of tying up Fang Zhengzheng must outweigh the disadvantages.
The most important thing is that once she uses her strength to tie up Fang Zhengzheng and then sends a signal to inform other disciples, it is definitely a credit to her.
Then…
There's no after that!
Because, the moment the woman walked up to Fang Zhengyi and put the silver chain in her hand upright, there was a muffled "dong" sound in her ears.
Then, the woman's eyes widened for a moment. She obviously couldn't believe it, because Fang Zhengzheng's movements were too fast.
It was so fast that she had no chance of resisting!
However, the result was already determined. After shaking twice, her vision finally turned dark, and then she fell to the ground.
"Sure enough, the disciples of Lingyun Tower are just as naive as the disciples of the other four sects." Fang Zhengzheng waved his hand and casually took back the black stick in his hand into his arms. At the same time, he looked at the wide-eyed man next to him. Pingyang smiled.
"How did you knock her out?" Pingyang didn't quite understand.
"Shouldn't I be knocked unconscious? Hahaha... You wouldn't believe that I would let her tie me up, would you? I am a very image-conscious person." Fang Zhengzheng laughed again.
"..." Pingyang's lips moved, and she couldn't react for a moment, because she really believed it just now, but soon, Pingyang laughed again, and this time she laughed. It was particularly brilliant, it was the joy of completely returning to Yanjing City: "Pfft, you are even more shameless than before!"
"Thank you for the compliment!" Fang Zhengzheng curled his lips and immediately accepted all the praise for Pingyang. Then he also looked at Lingyun Tower in the distance: "He sneaked into Lingyun Tower and had an affair with a sin slave here. One night, and then, another Lingyun Tower disciple was knocked unconscious, alas...it seems to be a capital crime!"
"I won't plead for you." Pingyang smiled.
"You actually didn't plead for me? It's just that the world is in trouble and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be. It seems like I'm doomed on this trip to Lingyun Tower." Fang Zhengzheng looked hopeless.
"Of course!"
"So, I dare to ask Her Majesty the Princess, are you willing to go to death with me?"
"I...will!"
…
Lingyun Tower, Jin Guan Ao is located on a hill among the flowers. A faint gravel path extends from bottom to top between the flowers and green grass to the front of Lingyun Tower.
In front of Lingyun Tower, there is a medium-sized open space, surrounded by wooden fences, with five huge exotic flowers planted in the middle.
Each strange flower has five petals, and each petal has a different color. The five petals of red, blue, black, gold, and emerald surround a stamen that is as bright as a diamond.
Five Lingyun Tower disciples wearing long green skirts with the word "Ling Yun" embroidered on their chests were standing guard next to a strange flower in different positions, with long swords hanging on their waists.
In front of the five women and five strange flowers, there was still a figure standing at this moment. Different from the five Lingyun Tower disciples in front of them, this figure was wearing a set of gray and white cloth.
Judging from the appearance of his face, he was a man less than thirty years old, but there was a natural majesty on this man's face.
Just now…
The man's face looked somewhat haggard, his lips were slightly white, and his eyes were difficult to open. He was obviously exhausted.
The five Lingyun Tower disciples each stood beside a strange flower. Naturally, it was impossible not to see the man in front of them. However, none of the five Lingyun Tower disciples said a word.
Just keep each other safe.
It's like you can't even see the man standing in front of you.
The man also stood quietly on the spot, motionless, but slightly biting his lips, as if he was waiting for something.
This is a strange and peaceful scene.
until…
Two figures appeared on the gravel path that extended to the front of Lingyun Tower. Two figures, one red and one blue, walked slowly from a distance, walking step by step on the gravel path, full of laughter, and it felt like This is not in front of Lingyun Tower, but like a garden in the wild.
"Huh?" The five Lingyun Tower disciples who were guarding in front of the five strange flowers also saw two figures in an instant, and their hands were instantly pressed on the long swords at their waists.
Different from the original calm, when the two figures appeared, the eyes of the five Lingyun Tower disciples flashed with a sharp light.
Then, after seeing the red figure clearly, this sharp gaze began to slowly change, from sharp to shocked.
"This seems to be the sin slave who was punished by the cold pool!" A disciple of Lingyun Tower quickly recognized Pingyang, although she did not know Pingyang's origin.
However, half a year ago, a sin slave came to the edge of the cold pool and collected ice souls for Lingyun Tower every day. This had been circulated in Lingyun Tower for some time.
After all, before this sin slave came, collecting ice souls in the cold pool was usually done by some disciples of Lingyun Tower in turns.
However, after half a year, this matter was slowly forgotten by people. In addition, someone in the building sent a message not to discuss the matter. In fact, not many people knew the name Pingyang. Only two people took turns to go to Han. Only those who are responsible for bringing back the ice soul at Tanbian know the name of Pingyang.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that everyone in Lingyun Tower knows that Pingyang has a pair of shackles on his feet, and the material of these shackles is thousand-year-old cold iron.
Could it be that the sin slave was released
This was a thought that flashed through the minds of the five Lingyun Tower disciples at the same time. However, this idea was quickly rejected by them.
Because, if the sin slave was really released, the person who brought the sin slave here should also be a man from Lingyun Tower, and could not be the strange young man walking beside Ping Yang in front of him.
Moreover, they all knew that the Lingyun Tower disciple who was responsible for bringing back the ice soul in the morning had already left the building, so that meant that Ping Ping had not been released at all.
