After Leng Yue and Butterfly left, Mu Lingtian and Mingyu also started to hit the road again. Soon after, they arrived at the First Inn.
Mu Lingtian is undoubtedly a feared figure in the world now. In the First Inn, he naturally enjoys superior treatment. As soon as he pulled the reins at the First Inn, the waiter came up to him.
As if knowing that Mu Lingtian was coming, the waiter Ah Da was waiting at the door of the store. When he saw Mu Lingtian, he hurriedly came forward to greet him, held the horse for Mu Lingtian, and shouted respectfully: "Hey, Master Mu! "
Mu Lingtian had an inexplicable feeling for the First Inn. When he saw Ada coming, he got off his horse, picked up the sword and the baggage, squeezed out a faint smile and said, "Thank you!"
The shopkeeper was wealthy, extravagantly dressed, plump, smiling and pleased with himself. He was holding an abacus and fiddling with the account books. When he saw Mu Lingtian and A Da entering the inn, he hurriedly came forward to welcome him with a smile. : "Yo! Master Mu!"
Mu Lingtian smiled slightly and said, "Stay here for one night, thank you, shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper hurriedly led the way: "It's an honor for the store that Master Mu thinks highly of the store. I heard that Master Mu was coming, and we have prepared two rooms for Master Mu. Come with me, Master Mu."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Mu Lingtian followed behind the shopkeeper and thanked him, and then asked, "I wonder if Brother Ren is still in the inn?"
While leading the way, the shopkeeper turned around and said with a smile: "The Sword Emperor left a while ago. Does Master Mu want to find the Sword Emperor?"
Mu Lingtian has only a handful of friends in the world, and Mu Lingtian is very grateful to Ren Xing, so when he came to the First Inn, Mu Lingtian immediately thought of Ren Xing. This is a question, but Mu Lingtian Ling Tian just asked casually. When he heard that Ren Xing was not there, he just responded lightly: "No, I just asked casually."
It was still early and there was still a long time before dinner, so after Mu Lingtian followed the shopkeeper into the room, he naturally planned to rest first.
Not far from the first inn, the woods swayed with the breeze, and the three rooms of Juggernaut's small building remained as before. Dugu Yun stood up, dressed in a gray gown, and sat leisurely at the stone table in the garden, drinking alone. There seemed to be emotion, sadness, and memories in God's eyes, but there was a faint smile on his face.
When some movement came, Dugu Yunqi put away his thoughts, looked up, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled wider, then stood up and walked towards the house.
Butterfly and Leng Yue walked leisurely towards the Sword Master's small building, one behind the other.
Dugu Yunqi walked out carrying a teapot, then picked up two wine glasses, picked up the wine pot, poured a glass of wine and a cup of tea, and then sat down.
Butterfly and Leng Yue entered the yard, as if they were returning to their own home, and sat down at the stone table. They put the Butterfly Sword and Ghost Sword in their hands on the table. Butterfly picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. .
Dugu Yunqi glanced at Leng Yue, smiled faintly, and asked, "Have you seen it before?"
Leng Yue glanced sideways at Dugu Yunqi, picked up the wine glass, raised her head and drank it down in one gulp, and then said with a faint smile: "Not only have I met him, but I have also fought against him."
"Oh?" Dugu Yunqi responded in surprise, which was beyond his expectation. Then he moved his gaze to Leng Yue and asked with a smile: "What do you think?"
Leng Yue and Dugu Yun looked at each other and analyzed as if chatting: "The internal strength is extremely strong, the sword skills are natural, the strikes are ruthless and decisive, and the thoughts are delicate. If you hold a sword, you may be able to compete with them. Such The character is much better than you were before."
Dugu Yunqi smiled indifferently, seeming to agree with Leng Yue's evaluation, and said: "If this were not the case, why would we care about raising him."
Leng Yue smiled, and there seemed to be some different opinions between her eyebrows, and said: "Aren't you afraid that you will really raise a sword demon?"
Dugu Yunqi said calmly: "How can you help me if you don't become a demon?"
Leng Yue's eyebrows narrowed, and she asked slightly seriously: "That said, animals are still animals after all. Raising tigers to kill people may not be inviting wolves into the house!"
Dugu Yunqi looked up at the sky, stood up, took a deep breath, and then sighed lightly, saying: "There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. Since we will be divided sooner or later, we might as well take this opportunity to compare ourselves. Life is lonely, can we have The opportunity to gamble is a beautiful thing.”
Leng Yue seemed to understand something. She picked up the flask and poured wine, and said with a smile: "Everything depends on man and God. If you can see it so clearly, you are already a winner!"
"How can we determine victory or defeat in this life? If we follow the way of heaven and look at mortals, is it not a kind of natural punishment to be born as a human being?" Dugu Yunqi sighed with emotion, then picked up the wine glass, drank with Leng Yue, and said with a smile: "So human beings After all, we are human beings, how can we defeat the laws of heaven? How can one man shake the stars in the sky?"
"It's a natural punishment to be born as a human being!" Leng Yue said with a smile, and then drank it all with Dugu Yunqi, then smiled at Dugu Yun and said: "It seems that over the years, you, the master of Xuanmen, have... You’re not as good as me!”
Dugu Yunqi smiled calmly and said with emotion: "Don't you also say that I am old? It is not a common thing in life to have feelings when you are old?"
Leng Yue smiled faintly, put down the wine glass in her hand, picked up the ghost sword on the table, played with it, put her hands behind her back, and walked towards one of the rooms, saying: "If I don't break up with you, this room belongs to me. , I’m going to take a rest, you two, don’t bother me!”
"Hey! That's my house!" Butterfly shouted to Leng Yue.
Leng Yue ignored the butterfly, as if she hadn't heard anything, and opened the door. With a soft "bang", Leng Yue entered the room and closed the door.
Butterfly stared at Leng Yue, took a shallow breath, and sighed slightly, seeming dissatisfied, but not entangled.
Dugu Yunqi glanced at Butterfly, with an inexplicable tenderness in his eyes, and said with a faint smile: "Have you had enough fun?"
Hearing the voice, Butterfly turned back and glanced at Dugu Yunqi. The concealment between his eyebrows had not dissipated. He nodded. Then he remembered what Leng Yue had said to him at the First Inn before. There was a little more transparency in his eyes. , asked casually: "By the way, what did you and senior brother say about me?"
Dugu Yunqi looked at Butterfly's somewhat angry look, raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and slowly put down the wine bottle in his hand. The tenderness in his eyes deeply concealed the letting go of the past, the cherishment of the present, and a sense of gratitude for life. Then he said to Butterfly: "I didn't say anything, I just said...if something happens here, can I marry you?"
Butterfly has been waiting for these words for many years, long ago thinking that he might not get what he asked for in this life. Now when he heard Dugu Yunqi's words, he was stunned, thinking that he heard wrongly, he raised his head and looked at Dugu Yunqi in shock, and saw Dugu Yunqi. Yunqi's gentle yet serious look made Butterfly slowly come back to his senses.
After waiting for so many years, I finally let Butterfly wait for these words. I have mixed feelings in my heart. Everything I have ever given has been for this moment. Butterfly's red eyes couldn't help but drop that crystal drop of smile that couldn't hold back tears. He came out, nodded slightly, and responded with a choked voice: "Yes!"
