Since March, the far south has been full of spring flowers, while the north is still unbearably cold.
Under the moonlit night, the ice on the lake had not yet melted, and in the desolate wind, only a black-robed man was like a dot of ink in the dry and lonely white.
He stood quietly with his hands behind his back, if it wasn't for Changfeng driving his coat and silver hair, people would think that he had been frozen into a rock by the cold.
The mountains and rivers were silent, and he was also quiet, until the bright moon above his head was about to sink, and he moved the corners of his lips slightly: "Someone said something you would say. There is also a name similar to you. He said I was wrong." He paused. He paused, lowered his eyebrows, and looked at the ice surface under his feet, "Of course I was wrong."
Since his decision to stay in the North six years ago, it has been wrong.
Even earlier, when he met Ji Yunhe in Yuyao Valley, and jumped into the abyss with her in the ten-square formation, he was wrong. What's more... He shouldn't have rescued a human being, a princess who was titled Shunde in those monstrous waves.
This world dispute should have nothing to do with him.
but…
He turned away.
"Wrong is wrong."
His voice and figure gradually disappeared in a snowstorm.
…
After escaping from death, A Ji thought rationally that she should leave the north immediately, take Ji Ning south, find a safe time to drive Ji Ning away, and she can continue to seek her own peace in this world. .
But it's very strange, after seeing the merman yesterday, Aji still wants to see him again... Although... The last time we met, he beat her to the point of vomiting blood.
That merman is dangerous, she shouldn't be near him, but...
In A Ji's mind, he recalled the back of his departure yesterday. When he left, everyone was glad that they had escaped from death, but he seemed to turn his back on all the hope of life and walked alone into a death-like loneliness.
Aji thinks... He is pitiful.
"Hey! Aji, what about you?" Lu Jinyan on the opposite side of the table held the wine jar and placed it on the table with a "trick", "What do you plan to do in the future?"
Aji came back to his senses.
Yesterday, she and Ji Ning were arranged by the snake demon to stay in the inn outside the Demon Control Terrace for one night. Before noon today, Lu Jinyan came to her with two jars of wine.
A Ji looked at the wine on the table and said with a smile: "If I want to drink such a jar, I've made all plans for nothing. I'll withdraw it and bring me some tea."
Ji Ning also interjected in a low voice: "I also drink tea..."
"I know the virtues of the people in your National Teacher's Mansion, so I won't force you to drink." Lu Jinyan muttered as he brought two large pottery bowls from the side and poured a bowl of rough tea for A Ji and Ji Ning. "But you are a monster, you don't like eating meat and drinking, but you like drinking tea? You are afraid that you are not following the magic of some pure-hearted demon master, right?"
A Ji smiled and picked up the tea bowl: "I'm still practicing magic with the demon master."
Lu Jinyan sneered: "Who are you kidding, you have developed four tails as a fox demon, if this skill was taught by a demon master, then the whole world should know the name of the demon master, but you talk about it, Who is so good at it?"
A Ji whispered in his heart, Lin Haoqing's name is really known to the whole world. It's just that she can't say it here...
She took a sip of tea and was about to prevaricate it when suddenly, a passerby exclaimed behind her, and then a familiar voice rang in her ears: "I'm also curious, who taught it."
Everyone's eyes were instantly drawn to this voice.
Lu Jinyan and Ji Ning turned pale when they saw the person coming. A Ji just drank the tea in his mouth and spit it back into the bowl. When she turned her head, the person who came was black robe, silver hair and blue eyes, the famous shark in the world. People come standard…
"Respect... Your Lord..." Lu Jinyan slumped to the ground with a thud. Ji Ning immediately took three steps back and crouched down in the corner. In such an atmosphere, Aji also stood up involuntarily and stared at Changyi blankly.
All the people around them bowed and saluted: "Honorable Lord..."
Only A Ji looked at him and looked at the people around him. He gestured with his hand on his chest twice. He really didn't understand how this ceremony was performed. Put it on the chest: "That... Your Lord..."
Aji bowed his head, thinking in his heart, these two words are really inexplicably awkward...
Chang Yi looked at A Ji's head: "Get up, I'm here to drink tea today."
He said, and walked to the position opposite Ji Yunhe...
This table has been sat on by three parties, but his seat is always empty. As soon as he sat down, the passers-by around him ran away in an instant.
Chang Yi turned his head and glanced at Lu Jinyan and Ji Ning who were still dumbfounded: "Aren't you sitting down?"
"I... I'm in a rush to urinate!" Lu Jinyan jumped up and covered his crotch, "Hey, yes, hey, I'm in a hurry to urinate!" He immediately ran away, and Ji Ning, who was squatting in the corner, said a word tremblingly, " I'm in a hurry too..." And then he ran away, rolling and crawling.
Only Aki was standing across the table.
Changyi looked up at her leisurely: "What about you, are you in a hurry?"
A Ji looked at Chang Yi's expression: "Can I be in a hurry?"
"Better not in a hurry."
Then A Ji sat down obediently: "I'm not in a hurry." She said, but she was muttering...
This great god looked so lonely and arrogant yesterday, like a solitary eagle in the sky, why did he fall into their chicken basket today... Could it be that he wanted their lives to fail yesterday, and he was unwilling to go back and toss and turn, today Or did you come to trouble them on purpose
"Your Highness..."
"Go on."
"Huh?" A Ji was interrupted a little inexplicably, "What?"
"Which demon master, taught you this skill?"
She still remembers this... A Ji pondered for a moment, she would have inexplicable mood swings when she saw this merman, it could be seen that they must have known each other before, but Lin Haoqing didn't want the merman to recognize her or let her see her. The merman, it can be seen that the friendship between Lin Haoqing and this merman is not very good.
A Ji didn't plan to sell her master now, so she lied quietly: "I am teasing Lu Jinyan, I learned all my skills by myself."
Strange to say, she felt like she was lying in front of this merman... She was also somewhat inexplicably familiar...
Before her entanglement with this merman, could it be that she deceived others of something valuable? Is she a thief...
While A Ji was thinking about it, Chang Yi slowly poured himself a bowl of rough tea and took a sip. The bitter taste of the tea spread between his lips and teeth. He looked at the tea bowl and continued to ask, "Oh, that's it again. When did you cultivate into a human form? What was the opportunity for the second tail to form, and how did the third tail break through? By the time you reach the fourth tail, you should have many stories of cultivation practice to tell.”
After saying that, his blue eyes turned to Aji.
A Ji was stared at by his cold eyes and opened his mouth: "I..." She finally said, "urgency..."
"Go." Chang Yi put down the teacup, "It's the same when you come back."
Aji pushed away the tea bowl and rushed to the back of the inn. As soon as she left, only Chang Yi was left alone in the middle of the inn lobby, and there was no one else around except Xiao Er.
Xiao Er and the shopkeeper exchanged eyebrows and eyes for a long time. Finally, the shopkeeper stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Honorable lord... A few days ago, some good tea came from the south. Would you like me to change it for you?"
Chang Yi turned to look at the shopkeeper.
Since Ji Yunhe was frozen, Chang Yi has not remembered the looks of the people around him for a long time. They are all blurred faces in his eyes. What he saw today is no different from what he saw yesterday, the only difference is the marks on their bodies. Servant, counselor, general...
But today, he saw the shopkeeper's face clearly.
The deep ravines on his face are the mark of the vicissitudes of life. The flattery and humility in the shopkeeper's eyes are evidence of his inner fear. He is afraid of him, but he has to obey him.
Chang Yi turned his head and turned the bitter tea in his hand.
Yesterday in the hall, this man named Aji screeched loudly in his ears: "I see that you have been in a high position for a long time, and you have forgotten your original intention. I am afraid that your style today is completely unacceptable to those people. Souls who died for the North!"
He raised his head and drank the rough tea in his hand.
"No need." He said lightly, "This tea is very good."
The shopkeeper was startled and blinked: "Hey? This tea... this tea... "
"I'll sit down for a while and leave. You are busy with yourself, don't worry about me."
"Oh... well..."
The shopkeeper touched his head and walked to the side, looking at each other with Xiao Er. While Fang Changyi poured himself another bowl of tea, his ears moved. His keen hearing could hear the three people chatting behind the inn.
Lu Jinyan asked blankly, "What should I do?"
"Have we been urinating for too long?" Jining asked.
Aji scratched her hair: "That... monster... how do you say it? I think about it... uh..." She calmed down, "Forget it... let's run!"
The other two were a little confused: "Huh?"
"Let's go, let's go through the back door."
There was a rustling sound, and there was no movement in the backyard.
Chang Yi looked at the tea in the bowl, the tea water marks his pupils, he curled his lips into a smile, drank the tea in the bowl, then took off the jade pendant on his body and put it on the table: "Forgot to bring silver, Use it to offset the difference."
He didn't look at the shocked boss and Xiao Er again, walked out the door, walked through the bustling side street, and called Chang Yi softly: "come here." The shadow attendant appeared silently in Chang Yi like the wind. Mind side. The attendant knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and listened to his instructions, "Go and check, how many tails does that fox demon have."
"Yes."
The attendant responded briefly, and when he was about to leave, he said, "Wait."
The shadow figure stopped.
"Head up."
The shadow was stunned for a moment, then raised his head blankly: "Your Highness?"
A handsome face, young, but already an old face.
"I remember." Chang Yi stepped forward and continued, "Go ahead."
Yes, he should remember, these faces, every life, they gave him their blood and trust, they did nothing wrong, why should they bear the price for his wrong steps...
