Taozi had a sumptuous dinner at home. Her parents cooked all her favorite things. After not being back for so many years, her parents naturally wanted to give her the best things.
After dinner, Taozi's mother took her and talked for a long time. It wasn't until it was already very late that they went back to their houses to rest.
Taozi saw that the lights in her parents' bedroom were turned off. After waiting for a while, she quietly left her room. After leaving the room, she closed the door. Then a soft light flashed in her hands. She actually controlled the door bolt from the air and locked the door. .
After doing this, Taozi jumped onto the roof and quickly disappeared.
When Taozi arrived at Gu Xifeng's house, she was speechless. Er Zhuang was actually drunk and unconscious. Gu Xifeng moved Er Zhuang into the wing. Taozi found that Gu Xifeng's movements were very skillful, and soon he It was obviously not the first time that he had placed the two strong men properly.
Gu Xifeng returned to the main room, and Tao Zi was speechless and said, "Er Zhuang has grown so big for nothing, and has such a bad drinking capacity? This isn't the first time you've knocked him down, right?"
Gu Xifeng smiled bitterly and said, "This guy does have a bad drinking capacity. He drinks too much every time he drinks. I'm used to it."
Taozi looked at the somewhat messy table. Although a lot of food had been eaten, it was still obvious at a glance that the food on it was home-cooked.
Gu Xifeng quickly stood up and said, "There are just some leftovers. Why don't you wait a moment and I'll go find some food."
Taozi waved her hand and said, "Don't go now. I've eaten a lot at home, and now I have no appetite to eat anymore. Sit down and have a drink with me and chat for a while."
Since Tao Zi said this, Gu Xifeng went to clean another wine glass, filled it for Tao Zi, and then sat down obediently.
Tao Zi raised his glass and clinked it with Gu Xifeng's wine glass, and the wine filled his stomach. The villagers' own wine was not strong, and a glass of wine did not make Tao Zi feel drunk.
The two chatted and drank wine. After a while, Tao Zi slowly leaned on the table.
She put one arm on the table and rested her head on it, looking lazy. She gently turned the wine glass with her other hand and stared directly at the wine glass, as if she was observing some rare treasure.
Gu Xifeng asked in confusion: "Taozi, are you tired?"
Taozi shook his head gently and smiled: "It's not that I'm tired, Xiaofeng, you know, after returning to our small village, I felt an indescribable sense of security, very comfortable, it seems that only when I returned here did I change again." Myself."
Gu Xifeng looked at the girl who had attracted his heart since he was a child, with an indescribable tenderness in his eyes. He once thought that his feelings for Tao Zi might just be his youthful curiosity about the opposite sex, but after so many years, he has seen too many stunning women. The feeling of heartbeat when facing Taozi has not diminished at all.
Gu Xifeng said with some distress: "Are you unhappy in the Galaxy Sect? Did the senior officials of the Galaxy Sect force you to do things you didn't want to do? You must have suffered a lot in the past five years."
Tao Zi raised her head and looked at Gu Xifeng. Under the illumination of the oil lamp, her little face looked even more beautiful. She sighed softly and said, "The Xinghe Sect is very good to me. I told you that no one forces me to do anything. It’s just that after I arrived at Xinghe Sect, I seemed to lack a sense of belonging, and I always felt like I didn’t belong there.”
"It's like falling into a bottomless abyss. I want to catch something, but I can't catch anything. I can only keep falling and never reach the ground." Taozi's eyes were very helpless when she spoke, like a lost person. little girl.
Gu Xifeng asked: "Taozi, why did you choose to leave home and why did you choose the path of cultivation?"
Taozi pondered for a moment and said, "There's no reason. It's just that my parents want me to go, so I go. If they want me to succeed in my cultivation, I'll practice hard."
Taozi forced a smile and continued: "They are all proud of me now, aren't they?"
Gu Xifeng's face turned ugly and he said, "This is not your own wish, so what do you want?"
Taozi blinked her big eyes and said, "Me, I hope to stay with my parents, find a loved one to get married and have children, and live an... ordinary... ordinary life."
When Taozi talked about finding a loved one to get married and have children, Gu Xifeng stared at her closely. She also looked at Gu Xifeng subconsciously. Their eyes met and their faces turned red. The atmosphere was very ambiguous. What Taozi said next was... He was so panicked that he stuttered.
Tao Zi turned away and hurriedly poured herself a glass of wine. She drank it in one gulp without touching it with Gu Xifeng. Gu Xifeng also quickly drank a glass of wine and was speechless for a moment.
Gu Xifeng said seriously: "Taozi, otherwise you can stay."
Taozi smiled and shook his head and said: "Don't be silly. The sect has spent so much effort to train me. How could I abandon the sect? Besides, only part of the plan has been completed. Although it will be difficult later, I still want to try." Try it, just come back and see more in the future, if you didn't tell me you would lend me the night."
Gu Xifeng smiled and said, "What's mine is yours. What's the point of our relationship?"
"Tch, what's our relationship?" Taozi said with a naughty smile.
Gu Xifeng rolled his eyes and said proudly: "Don't tell me, it's about getting married and having children!"
A ray of gentle light flew towards Gu Xifeng. The light was so fast that Gu Xifeng had no time to dodge and was blown away and hit the wall behind. He grinned in pain.
"Miss Tao, even if you are already a master, you can't hit people casually." Gu Xifeng rubbed his chest and said dissatisfied.
Taozi said in surprise: "Did you see it?"
Gu Xifeng chuckled and said: "As a secret agent of the Seven Kills Battalion, I still have this kind of eyesight. I can see it as soon as you make a move during the day. I have to say that your cultivation talent is stronger than Tang Jinge. You are the first among the younger generation." The name of a master can be replaced."
"It's different. As a grandmaster, I may not be able to defeat the current Tang Jinge. If he breaks through, I will be no match for him." Taozi said with a bitter smile.
Gu Xifeng asked in confusion: "How could this happen?"
Taozi thought for a while and said: "Let me explain it to you this way. Tang Jinge's cultivation was obtained by his own cultivation, and he is naturally easy to master. But my master's realm was only inherited through a special method and lacked sufficient understanding. , can be said to be the weakest master state, even so, it took five years to use the power of inheritance to cultivate to the master state."
Gu Xifeng said seriously: "The so-called plan you just mentioned is to accept this inheritance? Are there any disadvantages to accepting the inheritance?"
Gu Xifeng was very nervous, because he had dealt with Qingyantang many times before, and he knew how terrifying the way of the soul was, and he was worried that Taozi's inheritance would be plotted by insidious means like the art of seizing the body.
Taozi smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, it's just inheritance, nothing else. It's just that it's really difficult to accept the complete inheritance."
Hearing this, Gu Xifeng grabbed some information and said in surprise: "Are you saying that the master realm is not the limit of this inheritance? Is this the inheritance of a saint?"
Taozi did not answer directly, but nodded slightly. Gu Xifeng was shocked. No one had ever told him about realm inheritance. He always thought that he could only succeed in cultivation through his own understanding.
Taozi stretched out a hand, and there was light shining in the palm of her hand. She smiled and said, "Xiaofeng, let me show you something good."
The light in her palm was getting bigger and bigger, and the light gradually solidified and turned into a solid ball. Taozi dragged it upwards, and the ball rose up to the roof beams, and the room was illuminated. .
Gu Xifeng stared at the ball with a surprised look on his face and said, "This...is this the moon?"
Taozi nodded with a smile and said, "This is the little moon I simulated with the power of moonlight. Isn't it beautiful?"
Gu Xifeng nodded happily. Under the moonlight conjured by Tao Zi, the two of them drank a lot of wine. Gu Xifeng drank up all the wine he found.
Tao Zi's face was flushed because of drinking, and she looked even more attractive under the moonlight. Gu Xifeng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Taozi, you are so beautiful..." Gu Xifeng couldn't help but say.
Tao Zi didn't speak, just smiled at Gu Xifeng. Although he was not drunk yet, under the influence of alcohol, Tao Zi became much bolder.
Gu Xifeng sighed: "If you and I were ordinary people in this mountain village, we should have already started talking about marriage by this age."
Taozi actually nodded slightly and said: "Maybe, maybe it's really good like that."
"But Xiaofeng, I have known you for so many years, can you tell me who you are?" Her face suddenly became serious and she asked.
Taozi's question made Gu Xifeng's drunkenness dissipate instantly. He tried his best to control his expression and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Taozi, what's wrong? Why do you have such doubts?"
A look of disappointment flashed across Taozi's face, and she restored her smile and said, "It's nothing. I may have drunk too much and said some nonsense."
Gu Xifeng was staring at Taozi with all his attention at this time, and naturally caught her disappointed look.
Neither of them spoke anymore. The room suddenly became quiet, and the chirping of crickets came from outside the house, which was particularly loud.
Taozi suddenly stood up and said to Gu Xifeng with a smile: "Xiaofeng, it's getting late, I have to go back."
As soon as she finished speaking, she walked out of the house.
Gu Xifeng was extremely conflicted at this moment. He had to make a choice at this time.
Gu Xifeng seemed to have made up his mind. He stood up suddenly and grabbed Tao Zi who was about to leave. He said with a serious face: "Don't leave. I will tell you everything about me."
Taozi smiled, this time very brightly. Her previous smiles were all fake. She sat back in her seat and waited for Gu Xifeng's story.
Gu Xifeng adjusted his breathing and then said: "Taozi, you know the Jin'an Dynasty, right? The huge change on New Year's Eve that year caused the Jin'an Dynasty, the most powerful in the Central Plains at the time, to fall apart and split into three. Wang Chu Youjian and the saint Chu Mingyun also died in that accident."
As a leader among the disciples of the Xinghe Sect, Taozi naturally knows the situation in the Central Plains very well, and is also familiar with the three-part Jin'an matter, so she is not very surprised by what Gu Xifeng said. These narratives only explain Gu Xifeng and the Jin'an Dynasty. There is some relationship.
Taozi did not answer, and Gu Xifeng continued: "Back then, all the commanders of the three armies of Jin'an rebelled, and with the participation of many terrible snobbery, King Jin'an tried his best to save the situation. Many people died in the palace of Jin'an."
"Perhaps you have heard that the two sons of King Jin'an did not know whether they were alive or dead during the great upheaval. Now let me tell you that they are still alive, and there was another person who escaped from the palace with them. That person's surname is Sun."
Hearing this, Taozi's expression was full of shock and surprise. She had already guessed part of the truth.
"I think you have guessed it. Yes, the person who escaped except the two princes was Uncle Sun. He also burned his cultivation to protect the two princes during that escape, and that's why he fell down."
"After escaping from Yong'an City, the capital of Jin'an, the two princes went their separate ways. Uncle Sun took his younger brother to Yingzhou and settled in a small mountain village under Zidou Mountain. And the youngest son of King Jin'an is me. My real name is Chu Zhongan." Gu Xifeng's face was full of determination, and it was obvious that he had made a lot of determination before he decided to tell Tao Zi about his life experience.
At this time, Taozi stared at Gu Xifeng blankly, obviously frightened by Gu Xifeng's identity. She guessed that Gu Xifeng's background must not be simple, but she did not expect it to be so terrifying.
Seeing Taozi's expression, Gu Xifeng smiled bitterly and said, "Taozi, you don't have to look at me like this. After all, I'm just a prince whose country has perished. I'm nothing. This status will not bring any benefits, but it may bring some benefits." Endless disaster, otherwise I wouldn’t have stayed anonymous for so long.”
Taozi wanted to comfort him, but didn't know what to say at this time.
Just when Gu Xifeng was about to speak, a ball of warmth suddenly blocked his mouth. He was shocked at first, and then his emotions broke out. A young man and woman hugged and kissed passionately, and they separated after a long time.
Taozi's eyes were blurred, and she whispered in Gu Xifeng's ear: Thank you for trusting me. No matter you are Gu Xifeng or Chu Zhongan, in my heart you are just you. "
Gu Xifeng held Taozi in his arms again and said excitedly: "Taozi, no matter what in the future, I want to be with you!"
