Hua Lan looked at the boy in front of him with a moved expression, unbelievable and complicated, you really came...
When Bai Cang broke into Tiangong to hold Qiao Xuan hostage and asked for the Tianxin Bead, he was afraid of Qiao Xuan's safety and dared not make a move, so he had to watch Bai Cang take Qiao Xuan away... During this time, he has been guarding outside the Western Wilderness. A few days ago, He couldn't help but break into the magic palace again, wanting Bai Cang to hand over Qiao Xuan.
But Bai Cang told him that Qiao Xuan had been taken away.
Hua Lan didn't believe it at first, but Bai Cang hijacked Qiao Xuan just to blackmail himself, and there was no benefit in lying to himself. He fought with Bai Cang, and finally had to admit that what Bai Cang said might be true...
Qiao Xuan is no longer in the Western Wilderness.
Hua Lan was very worried. She didn't know who took Qiao Xuan away, and she didn't know where they went. She didn't even have any clue to find them.
At a loss, Hua Lan suddenly remembered that Qiao Xuan tried to go to the world through the mountain and sea map that day, but was accidentally hijacked by Bai Cang and failed. At that time, the last place on the mountain and sea map was Nanyue Kingdom. The capital, that is to say... the capital of Nanyue country, is likely to be Qiao Xuan's original destination.
After he leaves, will he come here
With little hope, Hua Lan came to the capital of Nanyue Kingdom.
Since the end of the calamity thousands of years ago, Hua Lan has rarely returned. As a god in the heavens, he must act in accordance with the way of heaven, and should not intervene too much in the affairs of the mortal world. If he goes against the sky, the consequences will be unpredictable.
This is also the reason why monks can no longer easily descend to the mortal world after they become immortals.
Immortals are different, each has its own way.
Can not be forced.
It has been hundreds of years since he came back last time.
The former Rong family is long gone, a new house has been built here, new people have lived in, and generations have changed... Hua Lan walks in it hiding his figure, Qiao Xuan, will he really come back here
In fact, Hua Lan himself knew that such hope was very slim.
But what he didn't expect was that he actually waited until Qiao Xuan was outside Zeng Rong's house.
The young man also saw himself, turned around and left, Hua Lan stepped forward to stop him without hesitation, he grabbed Qiao Xuan's wrist, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't go..."
Hua Lan fixedly looked at the young man in front of him. Qiao Xuan was a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect in East Chongzhou in this life. It stands to reason that even if he had just ascended, he should go back to Guiyuan Sword Sect in East Chongzhou. Come to Nanyue country, why come here, why... When I see myself, I can't avoid it.
Back then, you did not hesitate to risk your life, trespass into the forbidden area by mistake, and go to Tiangong to search for the map of mountains and seas, just to come back here...
Why
All these unreasonable things made Hua Lan involuntarily hopeful.
Could it be that Qiao Xuan still remembers what happened in his previous life
How else to explain his behavior
Qiao Xuan was grabbed by Hua Lan, and stood there in embarrassment. After a long time, he showed a surprised expression and smiled awkwardly: "Why is the emperor here, what a coincidence..."
Hua Lan's eyes were deeply suppressed, and there seemed to be countless emotions surging, he said slowly: "Yes... why did you come here?"
Qiao Xuan: "..."
Yeah, why am I here? Why did I come here... If I knew you were here, I would have taken a detour of eight hundred miles!
I want to tell you, I just came to find my sister, you are just one of my love, all this is just a coincidence... Do you believe me, or kill me
There is no other way but to make it up!
Qiao Xuan blinked his eyes, and opened his mouth to talk nonsense: "The Sword Lord Qingheng of our Guiyuan Sword Sect, I heard that he was originally from the Nanyue Kingdom, and his disciples admire him so much, so I wanted to visit the former residence of the Sword Lord. Take a look at the elegance of Jianjun's former residence... "
Hua Lan looked at the young man's eloquence, but he was still talking nonsense, without a word of truth in his mouth...
Are you so unwilling to have anything to do with me
Qiao Xuan watched Hua Lan's eyes getting darker and darker, with a tense and condensed face, as if he was trying to restrain himself, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he said cowardly: "Xiaoxian dare not disturb the emperor, Xiaoxian just farewell..."
But Hua Lan did not let go.
He smoked, he smoked again, he smoked again, but he still couldn't free his hand!
Cold sweat dripped from Qiao Xuan's vest.
At this time, he heard Hua Lan's deep and hoarse voice: "Don't disturb, besides...they are here, so why rush to leave, don't you want to come in and take a look?"
Qiao Xuan almost exploded, this is the Rong family, why do I want to go in and have a look!
Your words are heartbreaking!
Qiao Xuan continued to pretend to be stupid, and asked in confusion: "Is there anything strange about this mortal family? I don't see anything, don't go there..."
Hua Lan said word by word: "You come in and take a look, you will know."
Qiao Xuan: "..."
The wrist was pinched and hurt.
Qiao Xuan had no choice but to follow Hualan in. The people living here are still officials, with servants like a cloud, coming and going...Because Hualan played a blindfold, these people turned a blind eye to them. Qiao Xuan shuttled here and returned to the Thousands of years ago...
The Rong family at that time was similar.
Grand Master Rong has a high moral character and has numerous students. The Rong family is a prominent family in Nanyue Kingdom. Although Grand Master Rong is diligent and thrifty, he is not extravagant.
Although there are some similarities, there are also differences. They shuttled between the houses, and soon lost their way, and came to a wall.
Hua Lan didn't stop, she took Qiao Xuan's hand and walked straight forward.
After a burst of ripples, they directly penetrated the wall and came to a quiet courtyard.
There is a peach tree in the courtyard, which grows very vigorously and lushly. There is a stone table under the tree, and a jar of wine is placed on the table.
Everything is exactly the same as it was a thousand years ago, there is no trace of the fire, and time seems to be frozen here.
Hua Lan turned to Qiao Xuan and said, "How is it here?"
Qiao Xuan's scalp was numb, and he laughed dryly: "What a paradise, it's just a mere mortal home, how can there be such a place? I think there are traces of fairy magic here, could it be related to the emperor?"
Hua Lan said slowly: "When I retreated, I experienced calamities in the mortal world."
Qiao Xuan was surprised: "Could it be that you were born in this family?"
Hua Lan shook her head: "My beloved once lived here."
No matter how eloquent Qiao Xuan is, he won't be able to continue the conversation today. He feels that no matter how he picks up, it will be a dead end!
Hua Lan sat down in front of the stone table, showed a gentle smile to Qiao Xuan, lowered her eyes showing nostalgia, and said softly: "I just dug out this peach blossom wine, it's been a thousand years..."
He didn't hesitate to set up spells to keep this small courtyard and this jar of wine, just to keep in mind...
Qiao Xuan hesitated for a moment, then sat down in front of Hua Lan, obedient and cowardly.
Hua Lan poured him a glass of wine with his own hands. In his dark eyes, there seemed to be depression and pain. He looked deeply at Qiao Xuan and said, "This is brewed by my beloved. We made an agreement at the beginning that we will drink this wine next year. Dig it out, we're half of us..."
Unfortunately, he couldn't wait for this day.
Qiao Xuanmu didn't dare to look Hua Lan's eyes at all, and said humbly: "Since it is brewed by the emperor's beloved, and there are such meanings in it, I'm afraid it's not suitable to drink it."
Hua Lan looked at the young man in front of him, and remembered the days and nights of the past. As an emperor at that time, he had to make compromises and make every step of the way. The palace was full of intrigues... But in this small courtyard, there were all Beautiful memories, so he carefully sealed them and treasured them deep in his heart.
Just because he didn't want to forget, the boy's every frown and smile.
You are the one I never want to forget...
But what about you
Do you still remember this love
Before that, Hua Lan never thought about it, maybe the boy didn't want to remember it at all.
Hua Lan looked at the boy's evasive eyes, with a humble and distant demeanor... Sourness and pain filled his chest, the more indifferent the boy was, the more lightly he avoided, it was as if a knife had been stabbed in his chest...
Are you still resenting me, hating me, blaming me for not protecting you well, blaming me for turning a blind eye to what happened to you, blaming me for not saving you in time, blaming me for letting you die in the sea of fire...
For you, it is a painful memory, you don't want to remember, don't want to come back.
i understand...
But if this is the case, if you choose to forget the past, why do you want to come back here? To give me hope...
Do you really, really don't care at all
Hualan's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was low: "Xuan'er, I..."
Qiao Xuan's nerves tensed up. Seeing Hua Lan's showdown, Qiao Xuan was about to die of anxiety. He wanted to cover Hua Lan's mouth, please stop talking!
At the critical moment, suddenly there was a fluctuation in the sky above the illusion, and a handsome young man in a gray Taoist robe appeared in midair.
Suddenly broke the atmosphere here.
Hua Lan's eyes were fixed, and he turned his head to look at the uninvited guest in front of him, with a look of surprise, and then said in a deep voice: "Mr. Shuchen."
Qiao Xuan was startled for a moment, thinking that the name sounded familiar, and then he remembered it, showing a shocked expression!
Lu Chen turned out to be the legendary Shuchen Daojun? !
When he just slipped out of the Hanging River Valley, he met Wu Zimo, a disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect. Wu Zimo is a know-it-all in the heavenly realm, and he likes gossip and chatting the most. One of the famous ones.
It is said that Daoist Shuchen is the longest-lived immortal in the Three Realms. His existence can be traced back to the birth of heaven and earth, the first opening of the Three Realms...but he doesn't like to stay in the heavens. If you find him, he may appear anywhere in the Three Realms, his whereabouts are elusive, and he is the most mysterious one among the gods...
If Lu Chen was Shu Chen, Qiao Xuan would understand. No wonder he thought he was indifferent and indifferent at first, and he didn't care about everything around him, and he kept saying that he was destined.
How can an old monster who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, who has never seen life and death, care about mere ordinary people? I am used to the change of dynasties, so naturally I don't pay attention to such a bad thing about Nanyue Kingdom... His reaction at the beginning couldn't be more normal!
Hua Lan looked at Shu Chen with a solemn expression.
At the beginning, he incarnated as Xiao Lu and went back to the heaven after his death. He cared about the people in the mortal world, so he left a great spell on the Jade Seal of Chuanguo to protect Nanyue Kingdom for thousands of years. Decades ago, it had completely failed, and the Chuanguo Yuxi could no longer protect the Nanyue Kingdom, and the Nanyue Kingdom fell into disintegration.
It's not that Hua Lan doesn't know these things, but in this world, there is no long-lasting dynasty. The Xiao family's inheritance for a thousand years is enough. If he intervenes again and wants the Xiao family to be the emperor of Nanyue Kingdom forever, then It's a bit too much, and it may violate the reincarnation of heaven, which is not what he should do... Besides, he just regrets the suffering of the people, and has no intention of interfering in the affairs of the Xiao family.
It is normal for mortal dynasties to change.
But what he didn't expect was that Shu Chen would actually make a move, changing the fate of the Nanyue country and continuing it for another hundred years.
Shuchen Daojun has always been indifferent and inactive. Although he has lived a long time, he doesn't care about human affairs. Ordinary life and death... He actually took action to protect the people of Li, and even changed the fate of the country, which really surprised Hualan. It seems that Daojun This person is not as indifferent as the outside rumors say.
Although he was grateful for Shuchen's behavior, it was a bit offensive and abrupt for him to break into here at this moment, but considering the identity of Shuchen, Hua Lan still calmed down and did not directly attack, but said politely: "At the beginning, Daojun It is really a great act of kindness to take action to change the luck of our Nanyue country and protect the people of Li, but it is a pity that Daojun's whereabouts are uncertain and he was unable to express his thanks in person."
Shuchen's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't take this trivial matter to heart: "Just do it as you please, you don't have to be polite, the emperor, I'm here today... to find him."
Qiao Xuan was numb by the news one after another.
Lu Chen is not only Shuchen Daoist, but also he took action to change the luck of Nanyue, so everything now is because of Shuchen...
Why is he doing this
Wasn't it you who said it was useless and left alone
Hua Lan frowned deeply, why did Shu Chen want to find Qiao Xuan, and what was their relationship
A sense of vigilance rose in Hua Lan's heart, his eyes narrowed, and he slowly said: "Qiao Xuan is my old friend, I invite him to have a drink today... If you have anything to ask him, you might as well just tell him."
Shu Chen went to the inn first and found Qiao Xuan not there, so he came here. I don't know how Qiao Xuan provoked Hua Lan, but he was quite capable of causing trouble... Seeing Hua Lan's firm attitude, he didn't have the slightest intention of letting him go, so he couldn't help but He squinted his eyes.
He was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "It's nothing important, I didn't expect that Dijun is also Qiao Xuan's friend, since that's the case, let's be together... And how can I be missing from the drinking?"
Talking about strolling in the courtyard and coming uninvited, he sat down on the other side of Qiao Xuan.
Hua Lan's face darkened slightly.
Shuchen swept his gaze, saw the wine glass in front of Qiao Xuan, and laughed jokingly: "Dijun's wine is so-so, why is he getting more and more stingy... Ah Xuan might as well try my wine."
As he said that, he took down the wine gourd, poured a glass for Qiao Xuan, and said with a downcast smile, "Didn't you say that the most delicious wine I've ever seen in my life? I remember you liked it very much."
Qiao Xuan: "..."
Hua Lan's eyes gradually turned cold. This is because the visitor was not kind. He said lightly: "The wine of Daojun is indeed the best in the Three Realms and is well-known, but my wine has a different meaning and cannot be compared in this way."
Shu Chen's voice was cool: "Isn't it just a drink? There is nothing incomparable."
Qiao Xuan had a big boss on the left and a big boss on the right, with a face full of lovelessness.
There are two glasses of wine in front of him, and both of them want him to drink their own... But he doesn't want to drink now, can he drink Coke? !
When he was in a dilemma, there was a sudden fluctuation in space, and the figure of a man with long silver hair emerged.
Yun Tingshu looked at Qiao Xuan, sighed, and said, "Have you finished shopping? So I didn't go back, I came here for a while."
Qiao Xuan's eyes turned hot, Master, why are you here, help!
He is almost like a low-level employee in the company. He is forced to drink with the two bosses of the company. Each of the two bosses pours him a cup. Offend everyone, this is simply a proposition! He hates this wine table culture!
Qiao Xuan sat there, stiff all over, not daring to move, and said pitifully: "He...they invited me to drink, no, but I'm too strong to drink..."
He gritted his teeth and said cautiously, "Well, master, do you want to drink?"
Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and here comes the one who helps to block the wine!
