Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Qiu Shan has deep-rooted affection for Xu Yourong, and people once thought that Xu Yourong had the same deep affection for Mr. Qiu Shan. The real dragon and the phoenix share the same origin and grow together. One is very likely to renew the Longevity Sect. One is the legacy of the saint, and the other is the future saint of the south. No matter how you look at it, they are a match made in heaven.
Until... the Ivy Banquet in Kyoto last year.
At the Ivy Banquet, Chen Changsheng took out the marriage letter, and at the same Ivy Banquet, Xu Yourong asked Bai He to bring a letter, in which she clearly stated that everything was not as people thought , Until this moment, the whole world didn't know that the so-called "Made in Heaven" and "natural design" are just people's imagination and hope for beauty.
If it was an ordinary girl, Xu Yourong would be unwilling to meet Qiu Shan-jun right now because of the embarrassment and inconvenience, but those extraordinary girls who are smart and decisive would not meet Qiu Shan-jun, because it seems that only in this way can the other party Calm down as soon as possible.
But Xu Yourong didn't do that, she wasn't that young man like a breeze, and her Dao heart was not polluted, she didn't calculate, and she wouldn't deliberately change.
Walking into the cave at the peak of Lishan, she put the empty food box on the table, and said to Qiu Shanjun on the bed: "Junior Sister Qijian is still very weak, but she always wants to go to the capital to find Zhexiu."
Qiu Shanjun leaned against the head of the bed, his pale face was full of worry: "Master Uncle was very unhappy when he came back to the mountain and found out about this, he scolded Junior Sister for a long time."
Xu Yourong was a little puzzled, and said, "Senior Su Li is unrestrained, why is he so unreasonable in this matter?"
Qiu Shanjun smiled and said: "When any man is a father, he will always become the father-in-law he hated most when he was young."
Xu Yourong said: "But I still don't understand why he objected so severely."
Qiu Shanjun was silent for a while, then said: "Master uncle saw that wolf cub in the snowy field back then, he said... that wolf cub is sick and can't live for too long."
It was the first time Xu Yourong heard about this matter, thinking that the wolf boy who had put him the most pressure on the Qingyun Ranking, besides his miserable life experience, also had such an unbearable fate, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
Qiu Shanjun looked at her and said: "No father would agree to his daughter marrying a short-lived ghost... Speaking of which, Master Uncle scolded Chen Changsheng for three days because of this matter."
Xu Yourong smiled, but didn't speak. After arriving at Mount Li, she knew some things that happened after Zhou Yuan, such as the story of Chen Changsheng accompanying Su Li across the snowy field to spend the cool days. There was a change, but after all, that guy was called Chen Changsheng, she wouldn't speak ill of him, but she didn't want to praise him either.
Qiu Shanjun stopped talking, and continued to read the sword scripture in his hand by the light of the luminous pearl on the stone wall.
Xu Yourong picked up a scroll of Longevity Scripture from the table and began to read it silently.
The cave is very quiet, but it's not ambiguous, it's just very natural, just like before when Xu Yourong walked in, the two of them started talking and then ended the conversation, there was no need to deliberately do anything.
A few years ago, when Xu Yourong was still a little girl, she came to Shengnvfeng from the capital, and began to practice and study at Nanxizhai and interpret the heavenly scriptures. speech.
People in the world think that childhood sweethearts are childhood sweethearts, but in fact they know that that is not correct. The reason why there is no guessing is because each other is very clear about what the other is thinking.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Yourong stood up and said, "Senior brother, I'm leaving first, and I'll come see you tomorrow."
Qiu Shanjun looked away from the book and looked at her, but he didn't say to be careful on the road like he did in previous nights and years ago.
These were the happiest and most peaceful nights he had had in years.
Because he can look at her quietly, whether it's the slightly blinking eyelashes, the fingers turning the pages of the book, or the slightly raised lines of the corners of the lips.
You don't need to read it all the time, just look up at random when you are tired from reading, and she will sit there, and he will feel at ease, calm, and happy.
He really wanted more nights like this, so he wanted to say a few more words.
"Because of Master Uncle's matter, I owe him a huge favor from Lishan Sword Sect. No matter what enmity between the two parties in the past, now we can only owe him." Qiushan Jun looked at her and said: "But This kind of thing has never had anything to do with human feelings. What I want to say is that he is excellent and worthy of you. He is by no means as naughty as you said when you were a child, nor as unbearable as you mentioned in your letter last year. , so what do you think about this marriage now?"
The person mentioned in this passage is naturally Chen Changsheng.
Qiu Shanjun's tone was very calm, open and sincere.
Xu Yourong thought for a while, and said, "After a while, I will return to the capital to divorce the engagement."
"Break the engagement directly..." Mr. Qiu Shan said seriously, "It's a bit unfair to Chen Changsheng. His words are terrible. What your family did in the capital last year is almost humiliating."
Xu Yourong looked into his eyes, and said calmly: "But if the marriage contract is fulfilled, it will be unfair to me."
The marriage with Chen Changsheng was arranged by her grandfather, and no one had ever asked her opinion.
Qiu Shanjun was silent for a while, and said, "Sorry."
The apology here refers to the event that the Southern Mission went to Kyoto to propose a marriage last year, and no one asked Xu Yourong's opinion at that time.
Xu Yourong smiled and didn't say anything. She knew Qiushan Jun's character well and believed that it had nothing to do with him. At that time, she was sent to the South China Sea to practice quietly by her elders, and Qiu Shanjun was competing with those young and powerful demons The key to Zhou Garden...
Thinking of Zhou Yuan, a touch of sadness suddenly appeared in her autumn-like eyes.
In Zhou Lingli, he said that he had a marriage contract, but he would break it off.
She also told him that she has a marriage contract, but she will never marry that person.
Why is there such a conversation? Naturally, it was because he wanted to marry her, and she wanted to marry him. Although he didn't say it, although he was dead, how could he deny it, how could he forget it
That's right, so she was going back to the capital to withdraw the engagement. Whether Chen Changsheng was good or bad, that was not important, because he couldn't be him.
"Junior Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Mr. Qiu Shan could sense the slightest change in her mind, because all these years, his mind had been on her, he could feel her sadness, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
"It's nothing..." Xu Yourong looked into Qiu Shanjun's eyes, and suddenly felt that this matter should not be hidden from him, and after a short pause, he said, "Senior brother, there is one thing you don't know, the reason why I insist on retiring the engagement is because I have a crush people."
The cave suddenly became very quiet, even quieter than when the two of them were reading.
Qiu Shanjun suddenly laughed and said, "I think that person must not be me."
Xu Yourong smiled, and then roughly talked about the things he encountered in the Zhou Garden, mainly talking about the disciple of the Xueshan Sect's hermit named Xu Sheng.
Qiu Shanjun's smile disappeared, and after a long silence, he said: "Junior Sister, he should be dead already."
Xu Yourong said calmly, "I know."
Qiushan Jun looked at her, a little worried.
…
…
Walking out of the cave and coming to the edge of the cliff, the pines are carried by the night wind, making them look like a sea of silver under the starlight.
Xu Yourong looked at the young man dressed as a scholar by the cliff, and said, "Second Senior Brother."
Gou Hanshi left Tianshu Mausoleum ahead of time because he got the news about Li Shan and arrived earlier than her.
He turned around and looked at Xu Yourong, wanting to say something, but in the end he just sighed.
To him, Xu Yourong is a junior sister, and Qiu Shanjun is a senior brother. He knows the things between the two of them best, and he also knows many things about the capital.
Below the silver sea-like pines, there is an extremely steep cliff, and a mournful howl suddenly came from the cliff.
Xiao Songgong and the two elders of the Discipline Hall are now imprisoned in the cliff of Lishan Mountain. The two elders of the Discipline Hall have not recovered from their serious injuries. .
As for the Elder of the Longevity Sect who intended to take advantage of Su Li's absence to re-establish his authority, Su Li directly abolished his cultivation, and Li Shan's junior uncle's actions were really cold-blooded and venomous.
Su Li is currently recovering from his injuries in the back mountain, and Xu Yourong is also going there because her teacher, the Southern Saintess, is also there. After the storm in Xunyang City, the entire Li Mountain, the entire Tiannan, and the entire continent knew that there was such a deep friendship between the Holy Maiden and Su Li, and it was Xu Yourong who heard about it for the first time.
"I won't talk about other things, but if you insist on going back to the capital to cancel the engagement, I hope you can take care of Chen Changsheng's face as much as possible." Gou Hanshi looked at her and said.
Xu Yourong was slightly different. After so many things, especially after Chen Changsheng and Su Li's magnificent return to the south, she has already had a lot of doubts about what Shuang'er and Mo Yu said in their letters, and she will not be the same as before for Chen Changsheng. However, she still did not expect that Gou Hanshi would take the initiative to speak for Chen Changsheng.
"Chen Changsheng... what kind of person is he?"
Hearing her question, Gou Hanshi thought seriously for a long time, and then came to a conclusion: "He is a real person."
Neither he nor Xu Yourong knew that on the way back to the south, Su Li once commented on Chen Changsheng in this way.
"Yeah?"
Xu Yourong believed in Gou Hanshi's judgment on people, and couldn't help being a little dazed. She had already forgotten a lot of things when she was a child, but she gradually remembered some things after Chen Changsheng entered Beijing, but...
That's all, or there is really some misunderstanding, but it has nothing to do with her.
She bid farewell to Gou Hanshi, followed the mountain road beside the pine forest, and walked towards the back mountain.
Gou Hanshi suddenly remembered something and said, "Junior Sister, Chen Changsheng..."
Xu Yourong turned around and looked at him.
Gou Hanshi wanted to tell her that Chen Changsheng had discovered the sword pool in the Zhou Garden, and Li Gong was about to return these swords to the sects' gates, including the Zhaijian that was lost outside the Saintess Peak, but looking at her, she was a little nervous. With a lonely expression, knowing that she didn't want to hear it, and thinking that she might have already known about it, she shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
