Luo Han originally wanted to stubbornly say that she is younger than Ling Qingxiao, and she will be at the age of Ling Qingxiao. But when she was about to speak, her self-knowledge stopped her: "Senior Xiheng, you actually compared me to him, and you flattered me too much. When you know him a little longer, you won't have such doubts."
The arrogant elite disciples who used to be on the flying boat were all crazy before they saw Ling Qingxiao. After being beaten by Ling Qingxiao's score, they were all convinced and vowed never to be classmates with Ling Qingxiao again.
Too bad, really.
Xi Heng raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "Really?"
Luo Han looked at Xi Heng with the eyes of someone who had come over: "In three days, you won't be asking this question again."
Ling Qingxiao will soon prove to them with practical actions what it means to have a precise sense of time and execution like a machine.
Xi Heng and Luo Han, as the only two idlers, were very bored listening to this at the moment. They were bored sitting here, Luo Han just had some questions to ask Xi Heng, so he suggested to leave first.
Why should the two non-staff members be forced to join the battle meeting room? It is not good for others and not for oneself, so why bother.
Xiheng proposed to leave, and soon Rongcheng agreed. Ling Qingxiao frowned when she saw Luo Han was leaving.
He also wanted to leave, but many things have not been finished yet, and he may not be able to leave.
Huxu was as careful as a hair, and instantly understood Ling Qingxiao's thoughts. Huxu was a little speechless, and said, "The guards in the barracks are very detailed at night, and there are so many people there, there will be no danger."
Only then did Xiheng understand what Ling Qingxiao was worried about. He clicked his tongue in disgust and said, "Don't worry, with me here, I won't let her be kidnapped."
The words have already come to this point, Ling Qingxiao seems to be questioning everyone's ability when he is worried again. He could only stand up, send Luo Han and Xi Heng to the door, and ask Xi Heng solemnly: "God Xi Heng, the road from the road to the camp is not easy to walk, when she comes out, I will trouble seniors to take her to the house. Door."
Luo Han heard it and said quickly, "You don't need to trouble the seniors like this. It's not that I can't see it, so I don't need to send it."
Xi Heng readily agreed: "Okay, then I won't give it away."
Ling Qingxiao glanced at Luo Han helplessly, and could only say: "Then I'll pick it up. Senior Lao Xiheng is there."
Xi Heng looked left and right, and silently said "tsk" in his heart.
After Luo Han and Xi Heng went out, Luo Han turned around inadvertently and found that Ling Qingxiao was still standing there, watching her leave. Because of Luo Han's actions, Xi Heng also saw it. Xi Heng said slowly, "He really cares about you."
Even walking such a short distance, you have to see her enter the door with your own eyes.
Luo Han sighed slightly: "He's always like this. If someone gives him a little kindness, he will give back ten times a hundred times. His character is too easy to be hurt by others."
Xi Heng raised his eyebrows meaningfully, he glanced at Luo Han, noncommittal, just said: "A person's feelings are limited, maybe, let's divide it."
As an outsider, he can see clearly, Ling Qingxiao's attention to Luo Han is obviously unusual. Ling Qingxiao didn't treat everyone ten times and a hundred times better, he just treated Luo Han like this.
Moreover, Luo Han was actually very close to Ling Qingxiao. She trusted and relied on Ling Qingxiao far more than she thought.
However, the parties themselves did not realize this kind of thing, and it would be boring for outsiders to point it out in advance. After all, feelings are their own business, and if external forces intervene forcibly, it may backfire.
Xi Heng smiled and said nothing. With Xi Heng on the way, Luo Han didn't have to worry about being overheard by others, so he could ask Xi Heng some questions about his cultivation. She has not systematically learned that if she cultivates divine power, she can only rely on her own exploration. There is actually a big problem with this. She doesn't know what normal cultivation looks like, and she doesn't know whether the experience is right or wrong. She herself was suspicious, and when she came out, the effect was naturally greatly reduced.
After Luo Han finished speaking, Xi Heng pondered: "Everyone has their own cultivation method, you can't say it wrong, but based on my understanding of other gods, they usually don't practice like this."
Sure enough, Luo Han knew there was something wrong with the method. She had a good attitude, and immediately said, "Please advise the seniors."
"This is just a matter of experience, not a guideline." Xi Heng said while reminding Luo Han, "Everyone has his own way, and everyone's way is different. In the end, you have to explore your own way."
Luo Han nodded: "I understand."
Of course, she knows that everyone has their own method of practice, but accumulation is also very important before developing her own path. Any innovation is based on the premise of learning from the experience of predecessors and fully understanding the old methods.
Luo Han now doesn't even know the most common cultivation method, so rashly creating his own system can easily lead to a fork in the road. Xi Heng knows many gods, and gods need to communicate with each other in cultivation. He knows many cultivation methods, big or small, universal or partial. And his law is time. Time runs through ancient and modern times. It can be said to be the most mysterious and mysterious law in the world. His understanding of the law is also very profound.
The two reached the wooden house during the conversation. Luo Han sat down and continued to ask questions. After Xiheng's guidance, many things she had not understood all of a sudden became clear, and more and more questions came up. Before she knew it, a long time had passed.
Luo Han inadvertently turned his head and saw the bright moon hanging outside, only to realize that it was already so late.
Although God does not need to sleep, it is not good to disturb too late. Luo Han quickly got up to leave and said, "Thank you, Senior Xiheng, I have benefited a lot. I'm sorry to bother you so late today."
Xi Heng waved his hand: "It's okay. Cultivation is not a closed door. We should communicate with each other, absorb more of other people's ideas, listen and read more, and then we can distinguish more and more clearly. It's late today, you go back first, and the remaining questions will come back tomorrow. ."
Luo Han replied: "Yes. Senior Xiheng doesn't need to send it, I'll just go out by myself."
Xi Heng was just pretending. As soon as Luo Han said it, he immediately lay back on the collapse and said, "Okay, be careful yourself. Remember to bring the courtyard door when you go out."
Luo Han was helpless, and when he went out, he closed the door properly for him, so that Xiheng would not have to stand up and close the door. She walked out of the yard, turned around and closed the gate of the yard, turned around and walked two steps, and suddenly saw a person standing behind the bushes in front of her.
At this moment, the night wind is bleak, and the whole mountain forest emits the continuous sound of leaves. The moonlight is bright and clear, and sprinkles on the ground through the treetops. It is bright and cold, like still water.
Ling Qingxiao stood in the moonlight like this, the moonlight shone on his white clothes, and there was no temperature at all. The wind in the forest blew from the depths, gently curling the ends of his hair. The woods behind were dark, like some kind of giant beast with a big mouth, waiting to devour the night walker, and Ling Qingxiao was the bait that confuses the night walker's mind.
The moon shines through the ages, so far away.
When Ling Qingxiao heard the voice, she turned her head slowly, and her voice was neither too slow nor too slow: "You came out."
Luo Han walked up slowly: "Why are you here?"
"I said I would come to pick you up." After Ling Qingxiao finished speaking, she glanced at Luo Han calmly, "You forgot."
Luo Han replied vaguely, she really forgot. Luo Han reluctantly gave himself respect: "I thought you were just talking casually at the time."
It's only such a short distance, why did you miss the opportunity to talk to so many senior generals and come to pick her up in the deep forest? This is pure waste of time.
"It's not casual." Ling Qingxiao said, "I never say anything casual to you."
No matter what he does, he is very serious. In the afternoon, he argued very seriously that "there will definitely be a next time", and now he will tell her very seriously, never casually.
Luo Han walked silently on the mountain road, the moon was shrouded in overcast clouds, and the woods suddenly dimmed. They walked for a while, and Ling Qingxiao suddenly said: "Tomorrow, I may have to go to the battlefield with me."
Luo Han paused for a while, and then realized: "This is a good thing. There are so many seniors in the army, you can learn a lot by following them."
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. When you come to the Middle Ages, you have the opportunity to fight side by side with the legendary figures in the history books in the future. What kind of opportunity is this? Many inheritances in the Apocalypse Period have been cut off, especially martial arts techniques, many of which have been lost in the long river of time. But now, the founders of the later sects are standing in front of them. If Ling Qingxiao can follow them, the benefits will be immeasurable.
Of course Ling Qingxiao also knew that this was a good thing, the senior wanted to help him, so he would say such a thing. Ling Qingxiao's attitude towards cultivation has always been focused and rigorous. Given such an opportunity, he should not even think about it, but this time, for some reason, he hesitated.
Ling Qingxiao said, "Once you go to the battlefield, you can't arrange the time yourself. In this way, I may not be able to protect you in time."
Luo Han let out a small exclamation, and then she realized that Ling Qingxiao was in trouble. Luo Han immediately said: "It doesn't matter, you just do what you want to do. That agreement, um, doesn't have to be strictly followed. Anyway, I also want to learn from Senior Xiheng. During this time, you can do whatever you want. Going to do my own thing, I'm in camp all day and there's no danger."
Ling Qingxiao didn't answer immediately, he was silent for a long time and said, "But this way, it may take a long time."
Ling Qingxiao didn't know how to face his secret thoughts, and he also knew that every decision should be responsible for himself, and only his own strength was the real support. However, if he promised Rong Chengshen, then it is very likely that he will leave the camp for a few years and be out with the battle. Whoever Luo Han has met or experienced during this period of time has no chance for him to participate.
If Luo Han met other men of the right age...
Ling Qingxiao couldn't think about it any longer just by opening her head. Ling Qingxiao didn't know what he could do for this. If there were any measures that could be advanced or avoided, he wouldn't mind no matter how difficult it was, but it was beyond the reach of manpower.
He can only passively, waiting for the final judgment.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Luo Han thought he still minds the thousand-year agreement. Luo Han had a bit of a headache, and she had to fill the hole she dug herself. She swore not long ago that a thousand years is a thousand years, and one more day is not enough. Now she can't dismantle herself, she can only round the corners to herself: "You follow the gods to fight, the stronger you become, the more demons you defeat, the safer the rear position will be. This is also protecting me. We always have to go back. I work hard to learn the law, and you go to the battlefield to practice. Swordsmanship, we work together for the same goal, it doesn't matter if we are not together."
Ling Qingxiao didn't speak, and Luo Han didn't know if he was persuaded. Soon, her house arrived, Luo Han opened the door, before entering the door, she stopped and hesitated for a while, but finally turned around and looked directly into Ling Qingxiao's eyes very solemnly: "Protection is not a bondage, I don't want this agreement to become a burden on you. .Growing up is about becoming a better version of yourself, not giving up your dreams for another person."
"I want you to do what you like and not compromise for anyone. Even if that person is me."
Ling Qingxiao seemed to have finally moved, he nodded slowly, and said in a low voice, "Okay."
Luo Han was relieved and said, "Then I'll go in and rest. Good night?"
"Good night."
Luo Han entered the room, turned around and closed the door. The moon was obscured by clouds outside, the windows were half open, and the room was dimly lit. Luo Han went to the table to look for the lampstand. When she passed by the window, she turned around and saw Ling Qingxiao still standing there, not moving.
At this moment, the moon suddenly broke through the clouds, the moonlight was bright, and the cold light poured out like flowing water, covering the courtyard in an instant. Ling Qingxiao stood in the courtyard with a straight posture and a lonely figure.
It seems that the stars are not last night, for whom is the wind dew for mid-night.
The fire lead in Luo Han's hand shook and lit the wick with a puff. There was a lot of light in the room, Luo Han was stinging her eyes by the sudden light, she instinctively covered her eyes, and after she got used to it, she slowly put down her hands, and then looked through the window, there was no one in the courtyard.
Everything was quiet as usual, as if it was just her hallucination.
·
There are no years in the mountains, in the blink of an eye, it is three years.
Luo Han knelt on the mat, with a bamboo cup on the table in front of her. She surrounded the bamboo cup with her hands, and her hands slowly emitted a dark golden light.
As the light passed, the bamboo cup seemed to have undergone some kind of mutation. The green walls of the cup quickly dimmed and aged, and finally turned into dry and yellow wood. Luo Han let go, the dead wood seemed unable to maintain his body, and shattered into two halves with a bang. .
Xi Heng lay lazily on the couch, yawned, and nodded, "Not bad."
Luo Han moved his fingers. The time art was really, really difficult to learn. Bamboo cups were dead objects, and there was no cause and effect if they didn't move. Luo Han felt very reluctant to control such a small bamboo cup. It takes a lot of energy to open the time vortex. Luo Han needs to absorb energy from heaven and earth, while controlling the time on the bamboo cup to speed up the passage, and at the same time resisting the repulsion of time and space itself to the disturbance factor. In just one hundred years, Luo Han felt that she had reached her limit.
She looked at the dry bamboo in front of her and couldn't help sighing.
It's only a hundred years, and the distance between the Middle Ages and the Apocalypse is in trillions.
Seeing her depressed mood, Xi Heng said, "You have only studied for three years, and it is already very good to be able to do so. You have already learned the basic principles, and the next step is to become proficient in techniques and accumulate strength. Oh yes, you will do the opposite. Flow time?"
Luo Han shook her head. Now she can only speed up the flow of time, slow down the speed, and even reverse the flow of time. She hasn't learned it yet.
Xiheng said "Yeah" in embarrassment: "You can't, it's difficult to do. Now the bamboo cup has become a pile of wood and can't be used. If you can restore it, it will be fine. If you can't restore it, what should you do with these losses? ?"
Luo Han was shocked: "Is this still possible? Isn't this a teaching tool?"
"No, this is my private collection of tea utensils." Xi Heng sat up from the slump, shook his clothes, and said, "I only have this set of cups left, you can decide for yourself, anyway, in my evening Before I come back, I want to see a complete set of cups."
After Xi Heng finished speaking, he walked out with his hands behind his back. Luo Han looked at the pile of dead wood on the table, tried to touch it lightly, and immediately fell a lot of debris.
Luo Han didn't dare to move any more. She concentrated her attention and wanted to try to turn back the time and make the cup go back to a hundred years ago. But everything is easy to destroy and difficult to restore. Luo Han has tried for a long time, but he can't turn back time.
... Forget it, let's go down the mountain and buy another one. Who are you kidding? This is a private collection, when she can't recognize Carpenter Liu's craftsmanship
Luo Han came out of Xi Heng's house and took him to the courtyard gate. Xi Heng was really big-hearted, and he went out when he said that he went out without even closing the door.
In the past three years, because Luo Han has often been on the mountain, he simply built a small wooden house in the mountain, not far from Xiheng's wooden house. After she came back from class at Xiheng, if she was too lazy to go down the mountain, she would just live in a wooden hut in the mountains.
The house at the foot of the mountain was still reserved for her, but Luo Han lived less and less at the foot of the mountain. Only when the army returned from the expedition, Luo Han would move to the foot of the mountain and meet Ling Qingxiao, Rong Chengshen, Hexushen and others. . The rest of the time, she basically hid herself in the old forest in the deep mountains.
In the past three years, Luo Han has systematically learned how to cultivate. She knows what divine power is, what principles should be followed to formulate laws, and how other people's laws work... She used to be a wild way of her own, but now she finally has a system and frame.
After all, there are only a few people who can learn by themselves, and most people still need to follow the system to learn. If you have the guidance of your predecessors and you can refer to the experience of your predecessors, your progress will be much faster than your own closed-loop learning.
Luo Han went back to his wooden house to pack his belongings and walked down the mountain.
Because there are camps here, although it is a front line, it has gradually attracted residents to live together. When there is no war, there are markets and stalls at the foot of the mountain, which are quite lively. Luo Han used to go down the mountain from time to time to make purchases, but as soon as she entered today, she felt that the atmosphere was not right.
Everyone was elated, Luo Han grabbed one person and asked, "What's the matter? What festival is today?"
When the aunt who was pulled saw her, she became more and more excited and said, "Shen Luohan, you went down the mountain today? You didn't know that you were practicing on the mountain. Rong Chengshen won the battle, and everyone was celebrating."
Luo Han froze for a moment and murmured, "I really don't know. When will they be back?"
It's not that Luo Han doesn't care about the war situation, but the war is too frequent. For more than half of the year, Rong Chengshen led people to fight outside. Every time a large army came back, regardless of victory or defeat, this incident alone was enough to keep the camp lively for a while. Nowadays, all people are fighting, and basically every family has husbands, sons, fathers and even sisters fighting outside. The victory of the army is what everyone looks forward to most.
Although the aunt didn't know, she still answered enthusiastically: "I don't know either. God Hux didn't say it, maybe in the past two days."
The two of them stood here talking, and a few children were playing with bamboo dragonflies not far away. A boy couldn't get the bamboo dragonfly to fly a few times. He was anxious, he rubbed his hand hard, and the bamboo dragonfly broke free from his palm with a buzzing sound and rushed towards Luo Han diagonally.
Luo Han turned his back to them, not seeing any movement behind him. She heard the sound and was about to turn back when the bamboo dragonfly seemed to be stopped by some force, and it was suspended in the air. Looking closely, there was still a white frost mist on the bamboo joints.
Luo Han raised his head in surprise and looked in the direction of the spell: "Ling Qingxiao?"
A group of people slowly appeared at the intersection. Ling Qingxiao said to the people around him. The sergeant understood what he said and continued to walk towards the camp. Ling Qingxiao turned around and walked towards the market.
When the people in the market saw that the troops had returned today, they all shouted in surprise. The couple with children wiped away their tears excitedly, and the young girls hurried back to tell their families the news. Some little boys were daring and simply ran after the team. The market was full of joy, Ling Qingxiao went against the flow of people, walked through the lively crowd, and walked towards Luo Han unhurriedly.
The last time I saw him was like a few months ago. Luo Han was slightly in a trance. Three years was not a long time, but the baptism of war was unusual. After only three years, he was almost completely reborn.
In the past, he had a cold and quiet personality, didn't like to fight, and never started. But in the past three years, he followed Rong Cheng into and out of the battlefield. He was used to seeing the battlefield that harvested human lives like a machine, and became more and more restrained and profound. Later, he himself became a machine to eliminate demons and kill enemies. The training of blood and fire made him grow up quickly. If he used to be a crystal clear and indisputable ice sword, now, this sword has been quenched with fire, stained with blood, and has become radiant and aggressive. Get up.
At this moment, Ling Qingxiao came with the crowd behind his back, his expression was calm and indifferent, and he did not deliberately show murderous intent or coercion, but when people around him saw him, they naturally avoided him and shouted cautiously, "Major General Ling."
Ling Qingxiao made great achievements in the army very quickly. His straight-faced and informal temperament gave people a sense of distance in life, but it was very suitable in the army. The seniors above trusted him, and the soldiers below admired him. In just three years, he had already become a major general leading the army alone.
Wherever Ling Qingxiao went, the crowd avoided wherever, and finally Ling Qingxiao stopped in front of Luo Han and asked, "Why did you go down the mountain?"
Luo Han recovered and said, "Oh, I came to buy a bamboo cup from Carpenter Liu. I didn't expect to meet you back to camp. Why did you come back suddenly? Why didn't you say anything before you arrived?"
"There are some things in the back. God Rong Cheng led the people to walk slowly behind. Senior Su asked me to come back and report to God Hex first, so that God Hex would not misunderstand." After Ling Qingxiao finished speaking, she asked, "What cup? Come?"
When Ling Qingxiao came just now, Luo Han almost felt that he saw the shadow of the Heavenly Emperor of the future, but as soon as he spoke, it was still the Ling Qingxiao she was familiar with.
Luo Han said: "It's nothing. When I practiced the time technique, I accidentally destroyed one of Xi Heng's cups, and he insisted that I pay for it. I even felt that Xi Heng lied to me because he was too lazy to go down the mountain to buy a new cup. ."
Ling Qingxiao was thoughtful. He remembered that when Rong Chengshen was sending a letter to the camp, he also wrote a letter to Xi Heng. Xiheng, do you know something
Like when he arrived at the camp.
Luo Han complained to Ling Qingxiao about the trivialities of life as she walked. When she turned around, she found that Ling Qingxiao's eyes were calm and she seemed to be thinking about something. Luo Han asked quietly, "What's wrong?"
Ling Qingxiao quickly recovered, and the look in his eyes immediately concealed: "It's okay. Go and buy a bamboo cup for Senior Xiheng first."
Because they met Ling Qingxiao on the way, the two of them went to Liu Carpenter's place to make new cups together. To be honest, when Ling Qingxiao was in the yard, Carpenter Liu was a little scared, but when the famously cold-faced Major General Ling spoke to Luo Hanshen, he was patient and meticulous, his voice was gentle, and he was actually very good-tempered. Carpenter Liu's thoughts were in a mess, so he quickly finished it and handed them a set of Hsinchu cups.
Carpenter Liu originally wanted to hand it over to God Luo Han, but Ling Qingxiao watched Luo Han's words carefully, but his hand naturally stretched out to pick up things. Carpenter Liu shivered inwardly, and quickly turned around halfway, handing both hands to Ling Qingxiao.
Ling Qingxiao took the things, paid Lingshi, and accompanied Luo Han back to the camp. After Ling Qingxiao left, Carpenter Liu heaved a sigh of relief.
It was so scary that Major General Ling didn't even need to speak, he was just standing here, and the birds in the yard didn't dare to call. Thanks to this cold noodle major general, he cut the bamboo cups very neatly today, and there was no mistake at all.
Carpenter Liu sighed, I am afraid that only in front of God Luo Han can Ling Qingxiao have a gentle and talkative side.
Ling Qingxiao and Luo Han slowly walked towards the camp. She saw Ling Qingxiao's saber and asked, "Has the Jiuxiao sword been repaired?"
Ling Qingxiao took off the sword and showed it to her. The last time he fought against the Demon God, the Jiuxiao Sword was hit with a crack by the Demon God. After Ling Qingxiao entered the army, Jiuxiaojian was seen by Rong Chengshen and others. They said that this sword was ingeniously conceived, but the material was just so-so. Remelted on top.
The materials of the Nine Heavens Sword are average... Ling Qingxiao did not refute it. Compared with the Middle Ages, the materials of the Nine Heavens Sword are indeed average. The materials that can catch the eye will not be bad. The materials for Jiuxiaojian’s second remodeling are very amazing. Ling Qingxiao can make tools by himself, and there is no need to worry that the refiner will humiliate the materials. .
Doing it yourself is obviously more attentive than others, and also knows more about the fit between the sword and the master. After Ling Qingxiao's Jiuxiao Sword was remodeled, everyone who saw this sword was full of praise, and some even thought it was a magic weapon.
The last time Luo Han saw Ling Qingxiao, the Jiuxiao sword had not been fully used, and she had never seen the finished product. Ling Qingxiao pulled the Jiuxiao Sword out for a short period, and just as it was unsheathed, Luo Han felt a burst of cold rushing towards his face.
Things are so good that even a layman can clearly feel the pros and cons. Luo Han nodded and praised sincerely: "Good sword."
Medieval materials and the techniques of later generations, it is really against the sky.
Ling Qingxiao retracted the sword and said, "Thanks to the seniors for this."
Rong Chengshen proposed to find materials for him, and gradually more and more people were involved. Everyone was critical of each other. In the end, the materials that could satisfy everyone, one could imagine what grade it would be.
When the camp arrived, a half-year-old boy was guarding the intersection. When he saw Ling Qingxiao's eyes lit up, he turned to Luo Han, and his movements became hesitant.
Ling Qingxiao had already seen him and asked, "What's wrong?"
The young man smiled ingratiatingly, and said, "Major General, God Hux is looking for you."
Ling Qingxiao frowned slightly, Luo Han saw this and immediately said: "Senior Hexu must have something to do with you, you go to report the business first, I'll just go back by myself. I'll put the cup at Xiheng first, and then I'll go down the mountain to find you. ."
The boy's eyes widened, feeling that he heard something extraordinary, but he didn't dare to say it, so he hurriedly lowered his head. Ling Qingxiao nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, that's all. Be careful on your way."
"It'll be alright." This Lu Luohan has been through many times, and to her, it is like drinking water and eating. Seeing the young man in front of him, Luo Han asked, "Who is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
The young man raised his head in surprise when he saw that he had been named by the beautiful young Luo Hanshen, but before he could say anything, he was cut off by Ling Qingxiao: "The young man I met on the road had no father or mother, and his family was ruined, Rong Chengshen would call the shots. Put him in the team, and it happens to be in my team. Ozawa, go and speak to God Hux, and then go back to camp for training."
Ozawa didn't even say a word at all, and inexplicably added a "training". He was so sad and angry that he didn't dare to stand in front of God Luo Han again, and said aggrievedly, "Yes."
