Holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand, Mu Tiannan walked towards the Lin family's villa.
Others may not believe it, but these dewy roses are not expensive varieties, nor are they imported by air from abroad. If there is anything unusual, it is probably planted by the former Playboy Mu Sange up. He is a mortal without foundation, he is thirty-five years old this year, although he keeps exercising, has practiced ancient martial arts, his body is not out of shape and his skin is not loose, Mu Tiannan still feels a sense of crisis.
Because the woman he likes is successful in cultivation, she still looks in her early twenties, time has left no trace on her face, no matter from which angle you look at it, she will only be more moving than when you first met.
Thirty-five years old, with Mu Tiannan's family background and social status, in the eyes of unmarried girls, he is a real diamond king. But for Lin Luoran, whom he likes, she is not short of money. She is the more mysterious "Uncle Lin" among the mysterious cultivators in China. Mu Tiannan's advantage is only for ordinary girls in the world.
Then all he has left is probably the sincerity of "Three thousand in weak water, just take one scoop".
For one year, he insisted on sending a rose to Lin's house every day, leaving it at the door and then quietly returning, Mu Tiannan couldn't imagine that he would do such a stupid thing, because of this he had been ridiculed by Xuanyuanchen for a long time.
Not for one year, but ten years for the head office, right
Third Brother Mu originally planned to do so, but the morning before yesterday, when he was practicing, he found that his meridians felt blocked for the first time.
Mu Tiannan suddenly realized that it would be his thirty-sixth birthday in a few days, because Wu was not congenital, so as he got older, his meridians would feel blocked. To put it more bluntly, his Physical function is going downhill! If he still can't push the door of innateness, it means that his lifelong achievement will stop at this moment.
Watching his own strength not increase but retreating, watching himself grow old... Is there really not much time left for him to pursue happiness
Mu Tiannan thought about it, boiled frogs in warm water was really not in line with his style, and Xuanyuan Chen also said that he didn't seem to have the "personal charm" of Third Brother Mu. Mu Tiannan was going to give it a go, instead of putting down the flowers today, he would just leave quietly, maybe to put it bluntly, let him understand whether it is possible or not.
Carefully selected clothes, perfect details, and carefully shaved beard. All the half-opened roses in the garden were taken away by Mu Tiannan in one pot. Anyway, it will be on this day if it fails. It is only eye-catching in the garden. If it succeeds, then it should be a contribution to his master.
He felt that there was a courageous momentum in his heart, and Xuanyuanchen who was working as a staff officer at the side even felt that the confident third brother Mu who could control his future had returned.
"Third Brother, you will definitely succeed!" Xuanyuan Chen screamed.
The man in the mirror is at the most attractive age in his life, mature with cynical frivolity, this is the real Mu Tiannan.
...
He walked slowly to the front of the Lin family's villa. The Lin family was a little quiet today. There were no two children on winter vacation, Li Xi'er watering the flowers, or Lin's father fishing.
Well, just cheer yourself up, take a deep breath, don't be nervous, from the stainless steel house number, your smile is still perfect and impeccable.
Mu Tiannan, you can do it!
Just as he raised his hand to ring the doorbell, the iron door entwined with flowers and branches was suddenly pulled open, and the face of his sweetheart suddenly appeared in front of him, making Mu Tiannan dumbfounded.
Take a deep breath, take a deep breath, it's probably a coincidence that God favored him - before he picked up the flowers behind his back, he also saw Liu Zheng following Lin Luoran without warning.
If the situation is just like this, it would be more fighting for Mu Tiannan to express his love in front of his rival, then what is more tragic is that the heroine's eyes only stayed on his face for a short second.
"Hey, young master Mu, are you here? We have something urgent to go out for a while, you can wait for me at home first."
The key word is "we", and the tone is not an inquiry sentence, but an undoubted affirmative sentence pattern.
Mu Tiannan felt his heart go cold, but Liu Zheng added: "We really have something urgent."
So, he delayed the two of them going to a certain place together
Mu Tiannan couldn't think of any urgent matter that would make Lin Luoran lose his sense of control. He didn't even say a word of the lines he had thought up, so he moved the flower to one side by reflex, and stepped aside.
Lin Luoran nodded and smiled at him, and walked out the door.
The two had already walked to the lake, Mu Tiannan gritted his teeth: "Loran, I have something to say, just for a minute, no, thirty seconds, about the two of us..." He thought, if she suddenly turned her head , then I will hold the flowers in front of me like magic. This kind of confession is more formal.
Lin Luoran really turned her head, but she didn't stop.
She whispered two words: "Sorry..."
I'm sorry for what was said later, Mu Tiannan couldn't hear it at all, his hand holding the bouquet was completely stiff, because he saw that Lin Luoran didn't stop, turned his head and said sorry, and then pulled Liu Zheng's hand - flew into the air.
Clothes fluttered, and the backs of the two were enough to blind Mu Tiannan's eyes.
He suddenly realized sadly that no matter how many roses he planted, a cup would not be able to fly with her.
He doesn't have a moral foundation... Mu Tiannan's hard-earned self-confidence was instantly crushed, the hand holding the bouquet fell limply, and the hinge of the iron door just closed automatically, and the rose with dewdrops in his hand, the moment the iron door closed, , the flowers and branches were separated, and what Mu Tiannan held in his hand was a bunch of broken branches with only flower stems.
As for the fragrant and delicate petals, they scattered all over the gate of the Lin family, fell to the ground, and were stained with dust.
The crystal dew rolled into the soil and disappeared instantly, just like Mu Tiannan's secret love that ended without a problem.
Maybe Rongcheng is really not suitable for him, Mu Tiannan muttered to himself, and ran down the mountain in a daze.
"Find me an evening flight back to New York... yes, I want the fastest flight, that's all."
***********
"Did Old San Mu have something to say just now?" Liu Zheng simply had nothing to say, so he wouldn't admit it. It was because of his insufficient cultivation, it was a bit embarrassing to be taken to fly by Lin Luoran.
Lin Luoran smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Didn't I tell him to wait for me at home? Go back and ask him, I can't wait to see the Soul Cultivation Tree now! We're here, let's go down!"
The villa is very close to Qingcheng Temple, plus it is a straight-line distance, and it takes only two sentences. Lin Luoran dragged Liu Zheng down, and the crazy Taoist was already waiting in the yard.
"Come with the old Taoist!"
The entrance is a wall of the main room of Qingcheng Temple. This place was probably Huizhu's bedroom in the past, but now it is almost hollowed out by the mad Taoist master and apprentice. Going down the revolving stone steps, the terrain became more and more open. Lin Luoran's face was illuminated by a burst of blue light. This was the first time she went to the place where the soul-cultivating tree was cultivated. Her eyes were full of surprises. color.
She guessed that she might see a tree, but what should I say, what appeared in front of her eyes was indeed a tree, but—it was too big.
Looking down from the top, the rotating stone steps lead to the bottom. This big tree has a diameter of more than ten meters. It is as tall as a building with dozens of floors in Rongcheng. A leaf can be wrapped like a piece of clothing. Living alone, the upper veins are clear, with traces of green light flowing. Lin Luoran thought about the tree that had been planted in his own space for a long time. The actual time was two years, but in reality there was a tree that was hundreds of years old. However, for the first time, he felt inferior for the space.
"This is the mature body of the soul-cultivating wood. If it grows naturally, it won't take ten thousand years." The crazy Taoist led the two of them down.
Lin Luoran and Liu Zheng followed behind, Lin Luoran wondered: "Your junior, remember that it will take less than two years to plant it, why?"
They had already reached the bottom, and the hazy blue light came from here. Only then did Lin Luoran see that there were many crystal stones the size of eggs at the bottom of the tree root surrounding it. She could feel the aura of wood without touching it with her hands. spreading out.
"This is the small wood spirit mine under Qingchengguan, which was dug up by Master to give birth to the soul-nourishing wood." Liu Zheng explained in a low voice.
So these things that are lighter in color than emeralds, have edges and corners like polished diamonds, and exude wood aura, are they the legendary wood spirit stones
It's very similar to the "Fire Diamond" that is associated with different fires... Maybe I have seen the so-called spirit stones a long time ago, but they are of the fire attribute.
Lin Luoran picked up a piece and held it to feel it. Compared with the fire drill, these wood spirit stones are used for the nourishment of the soul-nourishing wood, and the wood spirit energy in them is almost used up.
"Senior, can the Soul Cultivation Wood be used like this?" Liu Zheng had already said it was successful, but Lin Luoran still couldn't believe it if he didn't hear the confirmation from the madman.
The mad Taoist hesitated for a moment, and Lin Luoran's heart twitched.
"If only Baojia uses it alone, it will be considered a success... In fact, this birth-giving secret technique has already broken the inheritance of the soul-cultivating wood. In the future, this kind of spiritual wood will never be found again on this earth."
As long as Baojia can be saved, she doesn't mind whether the inheritance of this thing will be broken. Besides, there is actually another plant in her own space, but of course she dare not say it, and instead asks the reason why the crazy Taoist said so.
"After it has nourished the soul of Bao girl, it will naturally wither, and no secret technique can revive it. You are now looking at the mature soul-nourishing wood, which has drawn its potential and vitality... In the words of mortals Said, this is a paper tiger." The madman circled around the tree, a little bored.
Lin Luoran and Liu Zheng looked at each other, and the latter quickly changed the subject: "Master, what should we do now?"
"Miss Lin, go back and bring Baojia, you stay and help prepare for the teacher!"
Lin Luoran nodded and said yes, but the mad Taoist stopped her again: "If there is no accident, Baojia will stay here for a long time, you can bring that junior from the Qin family along."
Well, the junior of the Qin family, isn't he the Commander Qin? The crazy Taoist really has a cold face and a warm heart. He obviously still cares about Commander Qin very much, so why doesn't he want to show it.
Lin Luoran climbed out of the mountain and called Commander Qin. He heard that the mad Taoist agreed for him to come, and the old man smiled and promised that he would be able to reach Qingcheng Mountain in half an hour.
When Lin Luoran returned to Lin's house, Lin's mother, Lin's father, came back one step earlier, and had already cleaned up the petals that had fallen all over the ground before, so she didn't come out and summoned the Lin family.
"Sister Baojia is going to be treated, when will she wake up?" Lin Luodong asked, Lin's father, Lin's mother, and Li Xi'er were also looking at her eagerly.
Lin Luoran pondered, and she couldn't answer this question. Baojia, who was lying on the bed, still had long hair and wore that ancient costume on her head. I heard the crazy Taoist say it was a dust-proof robe, so there was no need to change her face. The expression on the face is neither happy nor sad, like a delicate porcelain doll.
She was in a difficult situation, but fortunately Commander Qin arrived not long after, Lin Luoran picked up Baojia and left the house without letting the Lin family follow.
It's better for fewer people to know about Baojia's recuperation in the belly of the mountain. If Lin Luodong and Li Xi'er accidentally leaked the news in front of outsiders, it would be an unsafe hidden danger for Baojia.
When Lin Luoran and Commander Qin walked away, Lin's mother couldn't help wiping away tears: "Baojia, what a girl, how come there are three disasters and five disasters?"
Papa Lin patted the back of her hand: "Why are you sad? We should be happy that Baojia's injury was saved. This is a temporary farewell."
Both Li Xi'er and Lin Luodong nodded, and Mother Lin wiped away her tears and smiled: "That's right, girl Baojia will come back alive and kicking soon, we should be happy."
+++++++++++++++++=
The names are a bit ambiguous, he refers to Mu Tiannan, and she refers to Baojia. In fact, the two have nothing to do with each other. This name is taken to indicate that the fate of two important characters has ushered in a turning point... Of course, what happened? Bow, it may take a long time for Po to write about it, Quack.
