bells and whistles, useless.
Very good, Luo Han nodded and agreed: "Yes, what you said is right. People have to rely on themselves, can't rely on illusory fantasies, and expect God to help you realize your wishes, how can you do that? Wishes on the river lanterns , let him do it himself."
Ling Qingxiao felt that something was wrong when he heard these words, he couldn't help frowning, and said solemnly, "What did you write on the lamp?"
Luo Han didn't hear it and didn't answer. Ling Qingxiao had an even more ominous premonition in her heart, and asked, "It's all about trivial matters. The big things in life need Zhuang Su. It's too child's play to write it down on paper. It's not like getting married and proposing children, right?"
Luo Han's expression was slightly startled, Ling Qingxiao saw it, and his heart sank.
It really is. Ling Qingxiao was confused for a while, not knowing what to say. He was angry at such a big event as marriage, that another person was acting like a child, and even more angry that Luo Han agreed.
Ling Qingxiao didn't know that this delicate mood at the moment was called sourness. He had a cold face and was speechless all the way. His every move is still without losing the celestial demeanor, but the aura around him is about to freeze.
Luo Han felt that Jun was unpredictable and honest and did not deceive me. He was obviously the same person, but he became elusive when he became the Emperor of Heaven. Just then, passing a hawker who was buying sugar figurines, Luo Han stopped the stall owner and asked, "How do you sell your sugar figurines?"
When the stall owner saw that the fairy-like woman actually stopped him, he couldn't even say a word: "Ten... ten cents a piece."
Money in the mortal world is like nothing to Luo Han. Luo Han thought about it and asked, "What can you do? Can dragons?"
Ling Qingxiao was sulking with himself. Hearing Luo Han's words, he paused and looked down at her in surprise.
The stall owner probably listened to this kind of request from time to time, and immediately patted his chest and said boldly: "Girl, I don't dare to say anything else. If you talk about pinching dragons, I am the first in the city. It's the real dragon in the sky who has seen it, and I'm sure I can't tell the difference."
Luo Han laughed when he heard this, Ling Qingxiao was very helpless, raised his hand and patted Luo Han's head lightly: "Don't make trouble."
Luo Han took his hand away from his head and said, "Then I want a dragon, silver."
The stall owner had already scooped out the syrup. Hearing Luo Han's words, he was stunned: "Silver? Girl, we are sugar men."
Luo Han was also taken aback for a moment, yes, he almost forgot that this was the mortal world, and the syrup was not silver. Luo Han was embarrassed, Ling Qingxiao heard it next to him, couldn't help laughing, and laughed softly.
Luo Han was annoyed and gave Ling Qingxiao a hard look. Ling Qingxiao held her hand down, took out the money in the other hand, and put it on the stall.
"She's used to having some fantastic ideas, so the stall owner doesn't have to be embarrassed, just do what you normally do."
The stall owner felt that Ling Qingxiao's words were a bit strange, but he couldn't say it in detail. He responded, skillfully stirring the syrup, hooking people.
The waiting time was boring, Luo Han saw that there was a kite maker next to him, so he went to another stall to watch the fun. After Luo Han left, Ling Qingxiao subconsciously frowned and wanted to follow.
Why do you always run alone? It's too dangerous.
However, in fact, in this small human city, there is His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, the peak of the celestial force, there are about ten Heavenly Soldiers, and one Heavenly Dao. Could there be any danger that could threaten Luo Han
But no matter how good reason sounds, when something happens to you, it still doesn't make sense. Seeing that Ling Qingxiao's eyes had followed to the other side, the stall owner knew it and said, "Young master and girl haven't gotten married, right? It's a good thing to have feelings before marriage. Both people have feelings in their hearts, so they can live a smooth life after marriage."
Ling Qingxiao was slightly startled and asked, "Why did you say this?"
"It's still a guess. The two of you are unmarried couples at first sight, and secretly make an appointment for a private meeting. Although it is against the law to do so, it is necessary to bring husbands and wives and old companions less often. When you are young, you should take her to see the great rivers and mountains. When you are old, you will have something to remember.”
Standing in the mind of a mortal, the stall owner naturally felt that Luo Han and Ling Qingxiao were engaged men and women, and now secretly went out on a date behind their backs. Ling Qingxiao stopped in front of the stall and suddenly sighed.
Dragons have a long and long lifespan, so there is no need to worry about aging. He is also the Emperor of Heaven, and he cares about major events in the Six Realms every day. When did he stop at small things? At this moment, it was getting dusk, the horizon was smeared with orange glow, and the smell of cooking smoke wafted from both sides of the streets. A grandfather and grandma complained to each other and walked home with them. It happened that the private school was over, and half-old children were shouting and crossing the street. Soon, all kinds of mothers were heard from the depths of the alley. sound.
It turned out that this is the real world. Ling Qingxiao is the emperor of heaven. He knows the names of rivers and mountains in the three worlds of heaven, mortal, and underworld. He is familiar with the annual taxes and population of large and small cities, but he does not know how much money a bunch of candy people cost and when the private school leaves.
The emperor is destined to be lonely, and before that, he was the owner of Zhongshan, the creator and holder of the record of the fastest ascension in the heavens, and a rare genius of the Canglong family. He has many missions, but he has no warmth.
No one will consider whether the emperor is tired, just like no one will consider whether the genius will be stressed. He possesses a power that most people cannot touch in their entire lives, and a powerful force that is praised by history books.
The stall owner's candy man was ready. He handed it to Ling Qingxiao and said, "It's done. Today's last sale, call it a day."
Ling Qingxiao's eyesight was strong, he saw the contents and asked, "The rest of the syrup can at least make a sugar man, why stop work?"
"I won't buy the rest, I will take it back to my lady as a snack." The stall owner put away the tools. He stopped the little girl who was selling flowers next to him and asked, "How do you sell the flowers in your hand?"
"Ten pennies a stick."
The stall owner immediately complained, "So expensive?"
The little girl pouted and said, "This is a short-lived flower. It only blooms for one night. Others can't buy it if they want to buy it."
While complaining about how expensive it was, the stall owner took out the money from the candy maker and handed it to the little girl: "Get me a stick."
The little girl took out two flowers from the basket and said, "Only the last two are left. If you take them together, it will only count you fifteen cents."
The stall owner was suddenly unhappy: "Little girl, you are not young, but you are good at abacus. Two sticks are only fifteen, and you can sell me ten cents for one stick?"
The stall owner wanted to bargain, but Ling Qingxiao saw it and said directly, "Don't argue, give me the other one."
The flower seller was secretly watching Ling Qingxiao just now, and when she heard Ling Qingxiao talking to her, her face flushed with embarrassment. The stall owner was speechless: "Young Master, you gave too much. That girl didn't ask for your money!"
Ling Qingxiao looked at the words in her hand and smiled softly: "It's okay."
Money is the most useless thing to him.
The stall owner looked at Ling Qingxiao's performance, clicked his tongue, and understood. He skillfully picked up the stall and said, "Young Master, let's go over quickly, the candy man will melt if you don't eat it."
After the stall owner finished speaking, he walked forward with a big bag and a small bag, humming an out-of-tune tune. Ling Qingxiao didn't know what to think just now, she just wanted to bring a flower for her like a mortal, but when she calmed down, Ling Qingxiao didn't know what to do at all.
His hand can hold a pen and paint, form an army, and use the most tricky swordsmanship, but at this moment, he is holding a sugar man in one hand and a short-lived flower in the other, and he doesn't know what to do.
Luo Han thought that the sugar man should be finished, so he looked back and saw Ling Qingxiao who seemed to be stunned. She walked back to Ling Qingxiao, took the food from him skillfully, and asked, "Where's the stall owner? I didn't pay attention for a while, why are everyone gone?"
Luo Han took a bite and naturally raised the sugar man to Ling Qingxiao. She was used to doing this kind of thing, and she didn't realize anything was wrong at all. Ling Qingxiao stared at the sugar man who had been bitten, then looked at Luo Han's sugar-colored lips, and slowly leaned over and took a bite.
He basically just made an appearance, and the lips touched it. Luo Han didn't pay attention to this. After seeing Ling Qingxiao finish eating, she retracted her hand and took another bite.
Ling Qingxiao managed to stabilize her expression, still with the calm look of the Ninety Five, but her eyes were uneasily averted upwards.
Luo Han was eating Candy Man when Ling Qingxiao suddenly raised her hand and put something on her head. Luo Han was stunned, she wanted to take it down after she reacted, but Ling Qingxiao held her head down.
"Don't move." He glanced down and said, "Eat well, the sugar is on your face."
Luo Han licked his lower lip and found that it seemed to be true. She wiped the sugar residue on her face silently and asked, "Where did you get the Epiphyllum?"
"A little girl was in a hurry to go home and bought it with her."
It's rare that Ling Qingxiao, who doesn't know the world, has such a time to be so human. Luo Han looked at his close face and asked, "Why did you buy a flash in the pan? A flash in the pan, even if it's beautiful, it's too short-lived."
Ling Qingxiao paused for a moment while adjusting the position of the flower branches. He was obviously such a rational person, but at this moment he had unlucky thoughts. Ling Qingxiao took the flower down, ignoring the crowds coming and going on both sides, her fingers condensed ice, and a thin layer of frost formed on the epiphyllum.
Luo Han was shocked when he saw it: "It's just an ordinary flower."
As for freezing with such pure spiritual power? The spiritual power of the Emperor of Heaven should not be underestimated. Even if it is only a thin layer, it is actually enough to ensure that this flower will not change for thousands of years and will not rot for ten thousand years.
Ling Qingxiao said: "Unfortunately, it is a common thing with limited qualifications and can only be preserved to this extent. After returning to the heavenly realm, I will find another one with a long flowering period. For now, I will use it for the time being."
Ling Qingxiao inserted the frosted Epiphyllum into Luo Han's bun, and this time, it was much more pleasing to the eye.
Luo Han's hair was plain, with only the simplest bead flowers in her hairpin, and she was holding a half-eaten candy man in her hand. Her appearance was astounding, there was no extra decoration on her body, only a frozen epiphyllum was inserted on her temples, shining in the afterglow.
The crowds behind her came and went, some were busy going home, some were busy going out, but everyone behind her turned into a blurred phantom. Ling Qingxiao suddenly felt a sense of steadfastness. During his time in the world, he stopped and walked, and saw a lot of real customs. However, he always held an attitude of inspection and evaluation. Until this moment, he finally felt that he was integrated into the world. This is lively.
Luo Han saw that he didn't move for a long time, and his eyes stayed on his face. She was a little nervous and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ling Qingxiao reached out and gently brushed the sugar residue from her face: "It's all eaten on her face."
The attention of obsessive-compulsive disorder is always so stable, Luo Han stretched out his hand to wipe it, but Ling Qingxiao blocked it: "Don't move."
Luo Han had to stop and let his fingers flick on his face. Ling Qingxiao's fingers are slender and strong, and the fingertips are cool, and the place he touches seems to be refreshed instantly.
Luo Han said casually, "You really haven't changed at all in this regard."
"what."
"It's nothing." Luo Han shook his head and said, "I'm too lazy to go shopping, let's go back."
The most secure word in the world is probably the word "return". Ling Qingxiao was in the torrent of sunset in the mortal world, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
Although Luo Han and Ling Qingxiao dressed as mortals, they neither needed to eat nor sleep. Luo Han went to practice after returning to the house. When she woke up from her practice, it was already the time when the moon was in the middle of the sky.
Feeling bored after sitting for a long time, she stood up and planned to take a walk in the courtyard, and then return to continue. This city of Fan is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery. There is a vast lake in the city. Ling Qingxiao bought this house by the lake, and you can see the lake and mountains as soon as you go out.
Luo Han walked along the lake for a while, and saw a white corner of his clothes hidden in the bushes in front of him. In the hazy lake light, his clothes almost glowed white. Luo Han took the skirt up to the pavilion and asked, "Why are you sitting here alone?"
Ling Qingxiao found out that Luo Han had come out long ago, he reached out and poured a cup of tea for the opposite side, and said, "I have nothing to do, come out and see the night in the world."
The night is quiet, there is no moon tonight, but there are stars all over the sky. This flood water is living water. Some people put river lanterns outside, and they gradually floated into their yard. Luo Han sat opposite Ling Qingxiao, saw his eyes staring at the lights on the water, and said with a smile, "You still think that it is useless to put river lights on in the daytime, so what are you doing staring at other people's lights now?"
Ling Qingxiao was helpless, she really couldn't offend Luo Han, she really held grudges too much. He only said one sentence, and she could say ten sentences back.
Ling Qingxiao didn't need to pick it up to see what was written on the river lantern. Some wish their parents to be healthy and live a long life, some wish their children to be foolish and reckless in this life, and have no troubles to reach the prince, and some wish their sweetheart to come to propose marriage soon, and the wishful husband will appear as soon as possible... These are naturally useless Yes, life encounters the right place and the right place and people are indispensable. It is too lucky to hope that everything will go well just by writing it on paper.
Ling Qingxiao has always felt that this kind of thing is useless. Writing it on paper can neither help him achieve nor reduce the difficulty of the goal, and it will expose his thoughts prematurely. But now Ling Qingxiao was in the human world, and began to understand the thoughts of mortals a little bit.
The person who makes a wish also knows that relying on a river lantern is useless, but these things are very beautiful just written down. All they ask for is comfort in their hearts.
Ling Qingxiao said: "I also thought it was absurd before. What's the use of promising my own wishes to the gods and Buddhas? But now I gradually feel that these words are not for the gods, but for myself. I know that I can't do it. , but he still refused to give up, so he repeated it over and over again in his heart."
Ling Qingxiao looked back and saw Luo Han's expression, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Luo Han shook his head, "I just didn't expect that you would have such a down-to-earth idea. I thought you had always been high above the clouds, ignorant of the sufferings of the world."
Ling Qingxiao was a genius when he was a teenager, and when he became an adult, he ascended to the Emperor of Heaven, not to mention the mortal world, even the ordinary people of the immortal world, he couldn't have empathy. Ling Qingxiao paused for a while, then smiled lightly: "Everyone has suffering, how can they not know the suffering? Emperors and generals, soldiers and traders, each has its own difficulties."
Luo Han leaned on the table with her chin propped up, and the sparkling light next to her reflected on her face, flickering, like a fairy and like a demon. Luo Han asked, "What difficulties have you experienced over the years?"
Luo Han asked this question once before, but Ling Qingxiao ignored it and said that everything was in his hands. He is the emperor of heaven, everyone can be confused, painful, and vulnerable, but he cannot. At any time, he must be rational and strong, and become the backbone of everyone.
But how can there be so much effortless power? He gets tired and hurts too, but he can't even show it.
Ling Qingxiao quietly looked at the water waves in front of her, and said slowly, "My father is still imprisoned in another courtyard. My adoptive mother hates me to the bone, and my biological mother completely turned against me. On the day I succeeded to the throne, the six realms celebrated, and all nations came to court. , only my relatives are not in it."
Luo Han gradually sat up straight, his expression seemed unbearable: "Ling Qingxiao..."
"It doesn't matter." Ling Qingxiao said, "It's been more than 6,000 years ago, and I've long since looked down on it. The six realms say that my reason is almost cold, but I feel that I have never been able to get out of my own selfishness. Return Long Dan. At the time, I hated them for being capricious, hating my parents' partiality, forcibly opening Ye Zhongyu's heart to take pills, and thinking about it later, it was also magical. My hatred for him was actually higher than the desire for dragon pills. I didn't want to take back the dragon pill so urgently, I just found a reason for myself to kill Ling Zhongyu."
Luo Han stretched out his hand to hold his fingers and stared into his eyes: "Love and hate are human nature, no one can repay grievances with virtue and convince people with reason like a saint. You have encountered so much injustice and selfishness, It's normal to have personal grudges."
"You don't have to carry the burden in your heart." Luo Han's eyes were firm, and the light inside was flickering like the lights of a thousand homes. "Every choice you make, no matter what others say, there is someone who will accompany you."
Ling Qingxiao looked at those eyes, and for a moment did not know where she was, what day it was today. He came back to his senses and laughed: "I don't care about other people's opinions. When I do those things, I am always sober. I naturally know how others will judge me, and I also know that when I insist on attacking Ye Zhongyu At that time, it completely cut off the kinship in this life. There is nothing to regret, there is nothing to lose. I just regret that at that time, I should have killed him directly, and should not be concerned about reputation and keep him. One life. Otherwise, how could there be so much trouble now."
It was difficult for Luo Han to answer for a while. They hadn't talked about this topic before. Luo Han always thought that Ling Qingxiao felt guilty. Unexpectedly, he was more decisive and colder than she imagined.
Some surprises, but when I think about it, I think this is Ling Qingxiao. Luo Han held Ling Qingxiao's fingers in both hands and said, "How come you haven't owned it? You still have a long, long time ahead, and you will make achievements and establish your ideal world order. You will have many Things, fame, reputation, friends, and subordinates will all be there."
"What about the wife?"
Luo Han paused slightly, nodded and said, "There will be. As long as you want."
This is not the answer Ling Qingxiao was looking forward to. Ling Qingxiao said: "I have come to this day, cut off my kinship with my own hands, and killed my only siblings. I have no friends, no relatives, no brothers, and I don't need these. What they have to do is only Obedience. But there is only one thing that power cannot make up for."
Although Ling Qingxiao's words still use "I", the strong meaning in them is undeniable. Luo Han was silent for a moment, then said: "You will be a very good emperor, everything in the world is destined, what should come will always come, and you can't keep it. Just send me away."
Ling Qingxiao looked at her quietly, feeling a great sadness. He asked, "Why do you want to go back?"
"Of course I want to go back." Luo Han looked at him and said, "He's waiting for me."
Ling Qingxiao was silent for a long time, he had many words to refute, but he looked into Luo Han's eyes and knew that he didn't need to say anything. The night wind blew and knocked over many river lanterns. Ling Qingxiao put away the tea set and said, "It's late at night, go back and rest."
Luo Han stood up and said, "Okay. You should rest earlier too."
Luo Han walked out of the pavilion. After a long time after she left, she quietly turned around and saw Ling Qingxiao still sitting in the same place, motionless.
The swaying water light shines on him, like a fairy in a dream, not real.
Of course Luo Han couldn't bear to reject him, but she had to fulfill her promise, she couldn't just walk away like this. According to cause and effect, if the present he and the past he are the same person, then the state of the two should be the same.
Luo Han can only bet, betting on the past and the future, they are all one.
Ling Qingxiao knew that Luo Han had stopped in the middle, and also knew that she had been soft-hearted for a while, but in the end she was no match for another person. After she returned to the house, Ling Qingxiao withdrew her consciousness and took out a stone from the storage space.
It was a photo stone that he accidentally got from Luo Han not long ago. Ling Qingxiao stared at the stone for a long time, and finally reached out and forced the shadow stone to open with magic power.
Under absolute strength, passwords, bans, master recognition, etc., are all useless. After the photo stone was opened, a fairy-like scene was projected in mid-air, the clouds and mist rolled, and a man dressed in a white cang-patterned dress walked slowly from Nantianmen.
Next to him stood Tianyu Xingjun. At this time, someone in the background shouted, "Ling Qingxiao."
The picture stagnated here, Ling Qingxiao looked at the scene in front of him, the expression on his face was calm and indifferent.
Yes, all the details are correct. The day he first found Luo Han, Luo Han did show a sense of familiarity when he saw Tianyu Xingjun. It turned out that they had known each other so long ago.
The picture disappeared, the light on the shadow stone dimmed, and it fell to Ling Qingxiao's hand like an ordinary stone. Ling Qingxiao's slender fingers tapped on the stone table slowly, the rhythm was neither too fast nor too slow, and her voice was even and steady, but it made one's heart tremble inexplicably.
Before Ling Qingxiao looked at the photo-taking stone, she actually already had an idea in her heart. He opened the video, but to give himself a reason to make up his mind.
When he was young, he never got it, so he didn't fight or grab it, and closed himself in his own world. But as an emperor, he has long been used to it. If he wants, he will take it.
