The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on those trivial dark clouds.
The setting sun, as red as blood, actually illuminated the entire sky. At this time, the sky suddenly became brighter, and the refreshing flaming clouds were like cattle and horses, and they changed in all kinds of ways in an instant.
After getting along for a few days, the two have already formed a deep friendship.
Sitting alone on the top of the mountain, watching the setting sun.
The wind passed by, stirring up thoughts. In order to break the deadlock, Lan Linger moved slightly. The two of them looked at each other and smiled at the same time, breaking the death scene.
"What are your plans next!" Lan Ling'er looked at Zhao Yunxi with some embarrassment.
"I was a little confused at first! I didn't know where to go. But since I got the cause of my parents' death from Brother Axiang, I know where to go next." Zhao Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it Think about it and said to Lan Linger.
"Are you going to avenge your dead parents?" Lan Ling'er was a little surprised.
"After all, they died because of me! Not to mention those innocent villagers. I can't let them die in such a senseless manner. I want to find out the truth of the matter! Find out the real culprit behind the whole incident!" Zhao Yunxi looked at Lan Ling Er, said very firmly: "No matter where it is in the world! I must find this Luoshuang. All the current clues point to her! I just want to hear her tell the truth of the matter face to face!"
"The truth - is it really that important?" Lan Ling'er seemed to have something on her mind, but hesitated to speak. She could only look at Zhao Yunxi helplessly and uttered a sentence lightly.
Zhao Yunxi seemed to be aware of it, but didn't say anything. He just glanced at Lan Ling'er, then moved his gaze back to the reddish remaining clouds, and said calmly: "I just want to live a little more clearly."
"You...can't beat her!" Lan Ling'er was a little excited.
"I know! I may die on the spot, but I will never change my mind!" Zhao Yunxi was a little stubborn.
"It seems that you have really decided to see her." Lan Ling'er lowered her head in disappointment.
"You know after we have been together for so long. Once I am determined to do something, I will never give up!" Zhao Yunxi sighed and said, "Every one of my relatives died because of me! If I don’t go to them, they will come to me. Instead of doing that, it’s better to go to them directly and tell the truth! If they really want to kill me, why bother hurting those innocent people!”
"I know you are doing it for them! But have you ever thought about how you would learn the truth of the matter if Luoshuang didn't give you any chance? And if you go alone, not only will you not be able to get anything useful, I'm afraid the news of the value will fall into her hands." Lan Ling'er recalled the scene of that day and said: "A few days ago, she came after you. Fortunately, I blocked this terrible incident for you. hit."
"I'm sorry! I caused you trouble." Zhao Yunxi lowered his head guiltily.
"The enemy is strong and we are weak! The enemy is hidden and we are clear! If we are not fully prepared and move forward hastily, we will only cost innocent lives in vain."
"So, you have a solution?" Zhao Yunxi's somewhat depressed mood was suddenly ignited.
"Although the method is feasible, I'm afraid it's very slim!"
"Why do you say that?" Zhao Yunxi was a little confused.
"Do you know Longquan Sword?"
"Longquan Sword?" Zhao Yunxi recalled his past at Xuanzhen Sect and said, "I have only heard the master talk about it, but I have never seen what that Longquan looks like? And this Longquan still has some magic power. I don’t know if the power of the devil is true or not? But what did you mean when you just said that the hope is slim? Could it be that there is another unknown side to Longquan?"
Lan Ling'er didn't answer in a hurry and said after a long time: "That's because Longquan Sword knows its master! This is what I'm most worried about!"
"Are you worried that if I find Longquan, I may not be recognized by Longquan?" Zhao Yunxi looked at Lan Ling'er with some concern.
"That's right!" Lan Ling'er continued: "It's just that I don't know where the Longquan Sword is now or in whose hands it fell. I have only heard others talk about it. Since the battle at Taifeng Mountain, the Longquan Sword has also been It disappeared without a trace. I don’t know if this sword is still in the world.”
Zhao Yunxi seemed to have recalled something and said, "Do you still remember that we went to Yuzhou City to find the fortune-telling poem that Miss Ruoshui deciphered?"
"The rain falls at night and you are close to death, but the blood drops on the eyebrows are hard to find. After ten years of practicing martial arts, there is no hope. Longquan is easy to find. It is difficult to understand. A confidant will never be forgotten. There is no strong soul under the sword of Longquan. The falling flowers and flowing water are past events, and the world has peace. ." Lan Ling'er seemed to be aware of it and said: "There is also Longquan in this poem. Miss Ruoshui once said that this poem foretells the first half of your life. In this way, the Longquan sword is destined to be in the world, it just depends on where it falls. , and it’s unknown.”
"If it is true as Miss Ruoshui said, this poem foreshadows the first half of my life. It is not impossible to be recognized by Longquan."
"That's right! If Long Quan really doesn't know you, then this poem will be self-defeating. In this case, the so-called sacrificing one person to bring peace to the world is just a boast! It is not credible!"
"Seriously! How did you get this poem? Why I still haven't figured it out yet." Lan Ling'er was a little confused.
Lan Ling'er asked, and Zhao Yunxi told Lan Ling'er everything that happened. After hearing about Zhao Yunxi's adventure, Lan Ling'er suddenly realized.
"So, does that old god really exist?" Lan Ling'er asked.
"I think so too, but since I woke up from the dream that day, I have seen the side of the old god that I have never seen before." Zhao Yunxi was also confused and looked at his wine gourd.
"How about we look for Miss Ruoshui together again and see if she knows the whereabouts of the Longquan Sword."
Zhao Yunxi helplessly recalled the "Astrology" he learned that day, but he never thought that he still could not understand its secrets. Especially the person who calls himself "the real person" seems to be deliberately trying to prevent him from prying into the secrets. Even today, when I think of that figure, I can't help but tremble in my heart.
"What's wrong with you?" Lan Ling'er looked at Zhao Yunxi who was thoughtful and seemed to be worried, so she asked him.
"Ha! It's nothing!" Zhao Yunxi tried his best to evade it and said, "Why don't we set off tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Lan Ling'er didn't say anything, just acquiesced.
Under the night, Zhao Yunxi came to an abandoned mansion.
"Squeak-yah-!"
Zhao Yunxi opened the door and walked in.
Weeds grow in the courtyard. Along with it, the sky was filled with mist, making him unable to see the way forward at all.
He didn't know why he came here, he just tried to push through the fog and look for this last bit of habitat.
"Xian'er! Do you know that you are wrong?" An uneven voice suddenly sounded from behind, it was a female figure.
Zhao Yunxi was stunned for a moment, then fled away. A familiar figure appeared in front of him.
That was a very familiar figure. That’s right! This figure is the woman in the painting - Lu Waner.
"Mom! Is that you? Mom!"
Zhao Yunxi stepped forward, but missed. Lu Waner had already disappeared. Looking at the mist rising all over the sky, Zhao Yunxi felt a little disheartened.
"My mother's last words were to advise you not to interfere in the affairs of the world! Why did you turn a deaf ear to my mother's words and not take my mother's words seriously! Not only did you not want to make progress, you also harmed innocent villagers! Did you ever put your mother's words in front of you? In my heart!" There was a burst of scolding from the surrounding area.
"Mom! I didn't mean to get involved in the affairs of the world. I was just young and ignorant, and got the desire to practice martial arts because of my mother's portrait. Therefore, I had a heroic ambition to conquer the world and save the common people, so I embarked on the path of becoming a master and practicing martial arts. . Unexpectedly, within ten years of Xuanzhen Sect, those evil thieves would find the person whom their parents entrusted with their death! Not only did they die tragically in the hands of those evil thieves, they even spared the old, weak, women and children in the village! Although the child He has martial arts skills, but he doesn’t know who the murderer is. If he leaves the murderer alone, but in order to protect himself, he settles down in a corner and puts the people of the world in dire straits, how different is he from those evil thieves!" Zhao Yunxi carefully recalled everything that had happened in the past, thinking for a long time. , said: "Don't my parents live their lives for the people of the world! Now they have found a place for the child to stay. Even if the child does not want to get involved, it is impossible."
"Xian'er is determined to save the people of the world! This ambition makes me happy for my mother. But this concerns the people of the world, and you need to be careful about what you do. It's not just a trivial matter. If you have to, you must not move forward rashly. What are you doing? Senior sister Su Xin lost her life in vain because of your impulsiveness. If you don't learn a lesson and act rashly, I'm afraid that you will be just a man's bravery, and you will end up dead."
Zhao Yunxi did not speak. He was hit by Lu Waner's words.
That’s right! It's Senior Sister, and Senior Sister Suxin is the biggest pain point in his heart. This forced him to remember his senior sister's instructions to him before she died——
"You must not act so recklessly without Senior Sister by your side in the future. You must think twice before you act, do you understand?"
——
He finally shed tears because of his senior sister and looked around.
It was the mother, Lu Wan'er, sitting on the wooden chair with a smile.
In that scene, Zhao Yunxi finally let go of all his burdens, and the relieved three-year-old child threw himself into his mother's arms.
Lu Waner did not disappear, but there were a few strands of white hair in her hair, and there were some wrinkles on her face, making her look older.
"I've suffered so much for you over the years! My mother just didn't want you to get involved in dangerous situations again, so she said those words in order to survive. My mother also knows that although they are your adoptive parents, as children, you must not Forget about your roots. You are right about this. But looking at the overall situation, you must know where you are now. The so-called person who does not think about the overall situation is not enough to think about the moment. Have you ever thought about what happened to you? All kinds of things?"
Lu Waner stroked Zhao Yunxi who was crying on his knees with one hand, and comforted: "You still have a long way to go. If you don't see yourself clearly earlier, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go on in the future. The road ahead. , but it’s all up to you! But don’t forget your mother’s words! Think twice before you act!”
After saying that, Lu Wan'er disappeared from the spot in a flash, leaving only the empty chair.
Suddenly, the abandoned courtyard regained its former glory.
It was actually the tragic scene of the Mingyue Sect's sunset that day. It was as if he was immersed in the scene, allowing the tragic situation in front of him to happen, but there was nothing he could do about it. You can never stop what's happening in front of you. He stepped forward to dissuade them, but these people disappeared before his eyes like ghosts.
Of course, he also saw Zhang Hui, the traitor who put the entire Mingyue Sect in danger.
Zhang Hui, who rolled down the cliff, managed to survive with the help of the protruding stone wall on the cliff.
"Boom——"
Zhao Yunxi was brought back to reality from his sleep by a thunder.
[Questions: 1. What is Lan Ling'er worried about? Is she really worried about Zhao Yunxi's safety? Why?
2. Why did Zhao Yunxi see the tragic situation of the Mingyue Sect in his dream? What does this mean? Will Zhao Yunxi believe everything that happened in his dream? 】
