The sun always sets very early in winter, but at Youshi, it is already dusk, and there is only a hazy orange sunset glow on the dark blue sky.
But the Longmen Street in the capital city was still bustling and bustling. As the sky gradually darkened, strings of colorful and beautiful lanterns lit up one after another.
Tonight is Lantern Festival night.
The Juxian Restaurant on Longmen Street is very lively tonight. When there are more customers, the rewards will naturally increase. Even the old scholar on the second floor is working harder than usual tonight. , lifelike.
"However, back then, after the battle of Shuoxue, Xie Wanting, the lord of Shuoxue City, was defeated and has never been seen since then, while Yutian Demon Emperor Lu Xiao and Feilai Peak Lord Qiu Yutong also disappeared. A few years later, the demon world and the comprehension world It gradually became turbulent again, even in the human world, the fire at the city gate caused the fish in the pond to suffer a lot..."
A guest couldn't help asking: "Then Yutian Demon Emperor and Feilai Peak Master, how did they disappear?"
"Well, there are different opinions. In short, after the first battle of Shuo Xue, the two of them disappeared and returned after many years. At that time, the three worlds had fallen into chaos, and the demon world was divided into three camps. , The world of comprehension is still dominated by the four sects, monks from all walks of life compete for territory, and the sects fight each other... Fortunately, Yutian Demon Emperor and Feilai Peak Lord are back."
Speaking of this, the storyteller took a sip of tea, cleared his throat again, and then continued: "It is said that Lu Xiao, the Emperor of the Heavenly Demon, has almost all-powerful abilities. The chaos of the Three Realms has been brought to an end, and since then the immortals and demons have been united, and there will be no more disputes."
A guest was puzzled and said: "But I heard that the current lord of the fairy demon is Sang Lingxi, the lord of Shuoxue City, not Lu Xiao, the emperor of Yutian Demon..."
"Hahaha, this guest officer doesn't know. The Yutian Demon Emperor Lu Xiao actually has no ambition..." The storyteller paused and smiled ambiguously, "Guest officers, do you know that the Yutian Demon Emperor What is their relationship with Peak Master Feilai?"
"I heard they are masters and apprentices?"
"It's true that they are master and apprentice, but after Yutian Demon Emperor quelled the war and unified the Three Realms, the two quietly held a ceremony to form a bond and became Taoist couples."
"Taoist?!"
"That's right, it's just that their bond formation ceremony was very low-key, and only a few relatives and friends were invited, so many people didn't know that Yutian Mohuang and Feilai Peak Lord were called masters and apprentices, but they were actually lovers."
"There is such a thing..." the guest murmured, whether it was shock or sigh, "What happened next?"
"Later, Emperor Yutian Demon became the Lord of the Three Realms, and the two lived together in Yutian Demon Palace. For decades, they have been in love with each other. However, the master of Feilai Peak is pure and lively by nature, and he doesn't like to be restrained. It's been a long time like this Yutian Demon Emperor loved this master deeply, so he set up the Fairy and Demon League, and let Sang Lingxi, the lord of Shuoxue City, become the leader of the Fairy and Demon League to coordinate the three realms and take charge of the world, while he brought his beloved Taoist couple, the two of you are free and easy, and have gone to be that fairy couple."
"Crack, click..." Qiu Yutong kowtowed the melon seeds silently, while listening to the old gossip between herself and her little apprentice.
Although the story told by the storyteller is not entirely correct, it is more than half correct.
After I formed a bond with Xiao'er, the two lived in Yutianmo Palace for more than ten years. Xiao'er seemed to realize that he was a little bored, so he set up the Immortal Demon League, with the third senior brother Sang Lingxi as the leader, and their two masters and apprentices. People come and go freely in the three thousand worlds, and live all kinds of different lives. It can be said that they are as happy as gods.
A guest couldn't help sighing: "One fairy and one demon, one master and one apprentice, singing the wind and playing the moon, traveling in the world... What a couple of gods and immortals."
At this time, someone suddenly snorted coldly with extreme disdain: "Immortal couple? I don't think so."
Qiu Yutong was stunned for a moment, then looked slightly sideways.
I saw a young man in brocade clothes in his twenties, while playing with the wine glass in his hand, he said calmly: "I heard that Lu Xiao, the Emperor of the Heavenly Demon, was originally just a mortal, but Qiu Yutong, the master of the flying peak, He is a god. The identities of the two are very different. If Lu Xiao wants to become a fairy or a demon, he naturally wants to hold this master firmly in his hands. Tonic."
What he said is naturally very absurd, but it has been so many years, the human world has already changed dynasties, and no one knows the past of the two, whether it is Qingheng Xianzun, the blood of the demon dragon, or the wise and mighty emperor of the Chen Dynasty in the past, The Qiuxian master who went down the mountain to experience... everything has been lost in the long river of history, leaving only some ridiculous legends that don't make sense, which is not surprising.
But, but... Qiu Yutong endured it for a while, but still couldn't help defending the little apprentice: "You are wrong, it's not like this."
"Oh, do you know the inside story? Then what do you say is going on?"
The young man in brocade clothes turned his head sideways while talking, and when he saw Qiu Yutong's appearance, he was suddenly stunned.
"Xiao'er... Lu Xiao is not the kind of person you said." Qiu Yutong tried hard to argue.
The young man in brocade just looked at Qiu Yutong in a daze, as if he didn't understand what he was saying at all. After a long, long time, he came back to his senses, and then waved: "Xiao Er, take the best Zhuyeqing from your family, Serve this young man in white a pot."
"Good!"
After the young man in brocade clothes ordered Xiao Er, before Qiu Yutong refused, he got up and sat next to him: "Where is this young master from?"
Qiu Yutong blinked her eyes, she was really not used to such familiar people, so she said vaguely, "He came from the north."
"North... Is this your first time in the capital?"
"Been here before."
"Oh, which inn does the young master live in now?"
The young man in brocade clothes stared at him closely, his unscrupulous gaze made Qiu Yutong feel a little uncomfortable, he couldn't help but frowned, and said displeasedly: "Your Excellency, you should go back to your seat."
The young man in brocade clothes smiled slightly, then lowered his voice: "Do you know who I am?"
Uh, who else could it be? With neither aura nor magic energy, he is just a mortal.
"..." Qiu Yutong really didn't know what to say, and the other party had already gently stuffed a jade pendant into his hand.
Qiu Yutong looked down and was speechless for a while.
In his hand was a heavy emerald jade pendant with a complicated pattern of five-clawed flying dragon. Xiao'er had given him such a jade pendant when he secretly left the Daning Palace.
Although the color and shape of the jade pendant were different, Qiu Yutong recognized it at a glance. This jade pendant, with this dragon-shaped pattern, was the personal jade pendant of the emperor of the human world.
So, the young man in brocade clothes in front of him is the current emperor of the human world? This little emperor came out for a private visit during the Lantern Festival, and casually gave his jade pendant to strangers
Qiu Yutong really had nothing to say, before he could figure out how to refuse, he heard a cold voice: "Get up."
Uh, the little apprentice is back... But in the current situation, Qiu Yutong didn't know whether she should breathe a sigh of relief, or be more nervous—worried about the little emperor's life.
"Get up." Lu Xiao looked down at the young man in brocade clothes, and repeated it coldly, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
The young man in Jinyi didn't get up, but slowly raised his eyelids, looked at Lu Xiao carefully, and then looked at Qiu Yutong, suddenly showing a look of enlightenment: "Are you his?"
What is... "his people"? Although he and Xiao'er have become Taoist couples long ago, why does the little emperor's words sound weird
Who does he think he is
Could it be... Qiu Yutong had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly understood something, and she couldn't laugh or cry, but she didn't want to say anything more to this mortal, so she said: "Your Excellency, hurry back to your seat."
The young man in brocade clothes stared at him closely, completely ignoring Lu Xiao next to him: "Don't follow him, follow me, and I can give you prosperity and wealth that you can't imagine."
While Qiu Yutong was speechless, he was angry and funny at the same time. He didn't have time to argue with the little emperor, so he quickly pressed Lu Xiao's hand: "Don't mess around!"
"..." Lu Xiao pursed his lips, and reluctantly put back his sharp blood-colored nails.
Seeing that the little apprentice was still obedient, Qiu Yutong breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't want to make any mess on this great Lantern Festival night.
It's just that the little emperor in the human world didn't seem to realize that he had just recovered his life, and he still refused to leave, and said a lot of nonsense words. Yu Jian left directly, but, but... I haven't watched the lanterns yet, and I haven't eaten the sugar man yet!
At this moment of embarrassment, a melodious shout came from the street outside the restaurant: "Sell tofu nao, fresh and fresh tofu nao~ There are sweet and salty ones~"
Hearing this voice, Qiu Yutong and Lu Xiao were slightly taken aback at the same time.
A customer poked his head out of the window of the restaurant and said loudly, "Old man, bring me a bowl of salty ones!"
"That's great!" Not long after, an old man groped up to the second floor with two buckets of tofu nao.
Qiu Yutong and Lu Xiao couldn't help but glanced at each other. That's right, this old man was the blind old man who sold tofu brains they had met before.
The blind old man scooped up a bowl of salted tofu nao and served it to the guest just now. He carried the burden, fumbled around, and finally came to Qiu Yutong's table.
"Go away!" The young man in brocade clothes said impatiently.
The blind old man showed a weird smile, and then lowered his voice: "Your Majesty the emperor of the human world, if you don't leave here quickly, I'm afraid there will be bloodshed."
The young man in Jinyi was stunned, then stood up abruptly: "Who are you?! How do you know that I am..."
The blind old man said calmly: "Little old man is blind in both eyes, but not blind in mind."
"Are you a monk? Do you know divination?" The young man in Jinyi was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and turned to look at Qiu Yutong, "Then you..."
"What are you looking at?!" Lu Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, and at the same time, scorching black scales had slowly covered the back of his hand, shining an ominous dark red flame.
Qiu Yutong quickly grabbed his sleeve and shouted in a low voice: "Xiao'er, calm down!"
The blind old man smiled knowingly: "Emperor, if I were you, I would leave quickly."
The young man in brocade clothes looked at the old man, and then at Lu Xiao and Qiu Yutong. His whole body was shocked suddenly, and he suddenly understood something. A thin layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead, and he stood up almost in embarrassment: " Excuse me, bother me."
Seeing him go downstairs with two entourages almost as if fleeing, Lu Xiao snorted in extreme displeasure: "This kind of lustful idiot, master, you still protect him!"
"..." Qiu Yutong couldn't help rolling her eyes, she had a conscience, how could she protect a stranger, she just didn't want this scoundrel to make trouble again!
Over the years, this villain has done almost everything he can do on himself. I also know that this villain has no sense of security and has been following him as much as possible. But after so many years, why is this villain still like this? Sub-virtuous!
Although thinking so, Qiu Yutong quickly changed the subject: "Okay, okay, ignore these irrelevant people. Old man, I want two bowls of sweet tofu."
"Okay!"
Qiu Yutong took the tofu nao, and tentatively said: "Old man, we have met before, right?"
The blind old man smiled: "Of course I have seen it."
"Then old man, you..."
"Hehe, the heavenly secret must not be leaked."
"The secrets must not be revealed, the secrets must not be revealed..." Qiu Yutong murmured, his heart suddenly brightened, "You are the Mr. Tianji who compiled the sword manual?"
Lu Xiao was also stunned, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Mr. Tianji? That Mr. Tianji who counts from the top to the bottom?"
The blind old man smiled slightly, and didn't answer directly, he just said: "You two guests, do you still want tofu nao? If you don't want it, the little old man will go downstairs."
Qiu Yutong said anxiously: "Wait a minute! I, I want to ask..."
"Does the guest officer want to ask, how is City Lord Xie doing?"
Qiu Yutong nodded desperately.
The blind old man stared at Qiu Yutong with a pair of dull white eyes, and suddenly sighed: "Thank you, the city lord, he has too much karma, so he can only repay slowly. After the karma is settled, there will naturally be a chance."
"Cause and effect are over, cause and effect are over..." Qiu Yutong repeated in a low voice.
After the blind old man finished speaking, he picked up the tofu nao and walked downstairs slowly without further delay: "We sell tofu nao! There are sweet and salty ones..."
Listening to the melodious yelling that gradually went away, Qiu Yutong felt a little lost in his heart.
Senior brother in charge, he...
"Master, don't think about that." Lu Xiao said softly, "Let's go, let's go see the lanterns."
"Ok."
At this moment, the lanterns in the whole capital city are lit up, and the Longmen Street is even more brilliantly lit up. Rabbit lanterns, tiger lanterns, crane lanterns, goldfish lanterns... strings of lanterns are hung on the side of the street and overhead. , a splendor.
There are many pedestrians on the street, men and women's skirts are fragrant, people beating gongs and drums, people selling cakes on stilts... It is really lively.
The two of them were walking on the bustling streets of the world, in the boundless world of mortals, before they knew it, their hands were tightly held together, their fingers intersected, and they were deeply entangled.
In front of a booth, Lu Xiao's footsteps stopped. He was about to get the exquisite silk lotus lantern, but Qiu Yutong had already stretched out his hand and took the lantern down.
Lu Xiao was taken aback for a moment, but before he understood what was going on, Qiu Yutong had already handed the lantern to him, looking at him quietly with a pair of beautiful dark and clear eyes, and said softly, "Wine hurts the heart and hurts autumn." , The speaker is speechless and keeps his mind to himself, do you know?"
At this moment, Lu Xiao only felt that his mind was blank. He stayed for a long time, and then almost uncontrollably, he hugged the person in front of him fiercely, even his voice was trembling: "...me too, me too .”
