The harsh years have desolated love, the lovers who depended on each other never returned, and the lingering rivals lurked at the corners of the mountain roads to beat the autumn wind.
Sometimes, sincere emotions cannot be faked, but Yan Ci only showed a nonchalant look, making it impossible for Roy to tell whether it was a poor performance or superb acting skills.
At this moment, any words seemed superfluous, but Roy couldn't hold his mouth open and murmured: "My woman would rather be beaten a hundred times a day, but she would never allow others to touch her. Hey, say this." He is definitely a wonderful person.”
Yan Ci looked cold and glared: "Does a mere weapon spirit really know how to be happy?"
"I originated from the beginning of Hongmeng. I have seen countless crazy men and resentful women. I know that uncontrolled suspicion and unyielding resentment will sooner or later make the flower of love wither." Roy advised, "It's good to stay away from each other, but don't do it." indifferent!"
Yan Ci didn't want to talk, so he turned around and stepped on a piece of blue rock to sit in silence with his eyes closed.
The stars were shining brightly, and a string of lonely frogs croaked from the stream. The gentle autumn night gradually fell asleep in the starlight.
※
When longing strikes, it is like thunder from the sky and fire on the earth, and there is no reason to explain.
Yan Ci once imitated those young people who were full of energy and traveled thousands of miles for a wishful date.
As everyone knows, too romantic fantasies often end not in a beautiful story, but in a tragic accident.
Six years ago, Xiao Zhuyuan announced his break with the Huaqing Sect and went to Yihuang to make peace with Lu Wu. He then ordered the Zhenge City to be closed and Cuiyu Temple to evacuate Zhuyu Mountain to show peace and reserve a vast buffer zone to avoid conflicts. .
When Yan Ci revisited his hometown, he saw the decaying grass inside and outside Zhenge, and the desolation everywhere. He couldn't help but feel sad.
We took the road to the Crescent Lake to meet Han Bing, but unfortunately Qin Yuan stopped him halfway and said that Han Bing was fine and had no time to meet him because he was practicing Taoism day and night.
Coming here full of joy, but about to leave lonely, Yan Ci naturally refused to turn back and compromised in words, but secretly found another way into the mountain.
After changing the route several times, he was caught by Qin Yuan's wandering ghost every time, and he had to be scolded several times.
But Yan Ci is a weakling who can't be beaten to death, so he just refuses to leave. Qin Yuan also tried his best to save a semblance of dignity when dealing with Han Bing's close friends.
They didn't give in to each other, they could only stare.
In the end, Qin Yuan failed, perhaps because he felt pity. It is said that the Xuanyuan family has been in a state of semi-reclusion in recent years and has been trying its best to win over its master. Xuanyuan Feng went back and forth several times, with a very low profile, and paid tens of millions of spiritual objects as tribute, some of which were treasures that no one could bear to refuse.
Lu Wu was too lazy to pay attention to the way he behaved in the world. Lu Wu didn't bother to pay attention to it at first, but as greetings and gifts became frequent and he received more and more gifts, his attitude naturally became ambiguous.
One time when interest suddenly arose, Lu Wu once pretended that he was busy and let Han Bing receive the reception alone. After all, most spiritual objects are controlled by Han Bing, so she doesn't have many reasons to refuse.
A little ecstasy soup a day will inevitably lead to accidents if you drink it for a long time.
Han Bing gradually became familiar with Xuanyuan Feng's true temperament, and his cold attitude changed day by day. It turned out that the Xuanyuan family was not as arrogant as it seemed on the surface, and the mystery and benevolence inherited by the clan actually made people so obsessed.
There is no good-for-nothing person in the world, and no one lacks a cute and lovable side. What's more, Xuanyuan Feng is a person who stands out from the crowd. His speech and behavior are elegant and noble. Everyone who meets him falls in love with him, and Han Bing is probably not immune to this.
Yan Ci couldn't help but feel heartbroken. Could it be that family status, wealth and glory are really the trump cards of thousands of women?
Now that the matter has been revealed, the rest of the matter has not been concealed.
Qin Yuan also mentioned that Qing Ming passed away and Luo Wangshu had retired for many years. Outsiders said that Tongchenyuan was no longer revitalized, especially when Luo Wangshu enlisted the aid of the Red Flame Ancient Ape, who had a very high self-esteem. Virtue makes Enlightened Beast extremely dissatisfied.
Looking at the situation, Lu Wu's prejudice will only become deeper and deeper, and those affected have no explanation at all.
Yan Ci may no longer have any reason to miss Tongchenyuan at that time, but how can he easily forget the deep love he once had?
It's a pity that he lacks a few decent treasures to pay tribute. Even if he doesn't lack, it's not as rich as Xuanyuan's.
Yan Ci was filled with frustration and could only hope that Han Bing was not as philistine as others said.
Qin Yuan knew that he didn't believe it, and frankly said that Xuanyuan Feng was currently a guest at Tianshou Castle by the lake. If Yan Ci didn't deliberately reveal his whereabouts, he might go with him to see the truth.
As Qin Yuan said, Han Bing and Xuanyuan Feng walked together talking and laughing.
The tip of his heart seemed to be torn apart, scenes of the past melted into the vicious mountain wind, every joy was replaced by sadness, Yan Ci felt like he had been cursed by the sky!
Qin Yuan couldn't bear it, saying that things in the world are unpredictable, and it is useless to be sad or complain, so he advised Yan to leave early and return home early.
Life comes and goes, and relationships inevitably break up and reunite. One day, partners who are as good as each other become strangers, and loyal lovers fall into the arms of their enemies. They fall due to glitz and excitement, and get lost due to applause and flowers. Everything in the world is like this.
Being furious and crying bitterly did not help, so Yan Ci decisively turned around and returned, without any worries, walking resolutely and gracefully.
The leisurely spectators only cheered for the actor's superb skills and did not care that the courage to fight against fate flowed in his bones.
Just like Qin Yuan, he admired Yan Cingtong's adaptability and decisiveness, but he could not appreciate the deep hatred of being betrayed and humiliated hidden in his freedom and ease.

The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month was a good time to marry, make an alliance, and seek heirs. The Xuanyuan family planned to hold a double cultivation ceremony for Xuanyuan Hongjian and Qingyan on this day.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the disciples of Xuanyuan traveled all over the world and sent out invitations one after another, inviting various sects and well-known casual cultivators to attend the ceremony.
Although the congratulators do not know where the Xuanyuan family lives in seclusion, they only need to arrive at the Star Picking City in late winter, and there will be a welcoming messenger to pick them up.
The world of cultivation has been dead for too long. Especially in recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, and everyone is feeling sulky. Just think of it as a happy event, this ceremony is absolutely lively and a major event that attracts worldwide attention.
Unsurprisingly, Tongchenyuan was not among those invited. After all, no matter how generous the host is, he would not like to have unwelcome guests on his wedding day.
Seeing that Yan Ci had nothing to do, Roy proposed to visit Penglai again to see if the elves had grown up. He also took the opportunity to talk about life ambitions with Xiao Mengjiu and share some chicken soup.
Yan Ci had no other place to go, so he immediately agreed and took the road south to go to sea from Yingge City.
In the evening, he transformed into a frail scholar and rested in a small shop in a mountain village.
I met several random cultivators staying overnight, and they discussed that they were going to pick up a famous person in Star City, hoping to sneak into the Xuanyuan family to watch the ceremony, and get some benefits along the way.
When Yan Ci heard the news, he was secretly happy. If he could easily find the Xuanyuan clan's habitat, he would be spared a lot of trouble in the future.
After briefly talking to Roy, Yan Ci changed his route and headed north to Zhaixing City. He took his time and fled for more than ten days to reach the border of Fu'en County.
This place was originally a drought-stricken area, but it has been raining recently.
According to an old farmer in the field, there was lightning and thunder last night, and he saw two giant dragons running in the dark clouds.
One dragon is strong and the other is slender. The dragon's body is covered with gold and red scales and has a long tail fin.
At that time, the two dragons were flying in the wind and clouds, the pearls under their jaws were spitting out a burst of colorful mist, and a heavy rain fell around them.
In just a few days, it was widely spread that the drought and flood disasters in the south and north had been alleviated, and villages were busy planting wheat and rapeseed to regain their livelihood.
Xuanyuan Yi was a good talker, and he really persuaded the Dragon Lord and Dragon Queen to go out to sea to stop the rain and stop the clouds, which made the cultivators all over the world have a better impression of the Xuanyuan family.
It was dark and windy, and Yan Ci was sitting alone in the northeast corner of the inn. The light here was dim, and his appearance was blurry.
There was half a plate of scattered peanuts on the table. These days, you are lucky to have some free time.
My ears were filled with all kinds of bragging voices for the Xuanyuan family. Ordinary people had no money to go to the restaurant, so the five or six tables of guests were all cultivators.
The innkeeper and waiter listened to the words that they couldn't understand at all, and felt that the diners were all experts.
Perhaps because he considers himself to be an ordinary person, the waiter did not dare to go anywhere else to start a fight. He only dared to come to Yan Ci's side and said with a smile, "The peanuts are a little broken, but the frying skills are passed down from ancestors. Sir, would you like to add some more?" "
Yan Ci was absent-minded and said casually: "Very good."
The peanuts taste acceptable, but they are definitely not fried using ancestral techniques. They look like they were accidentally broken after being fired from a fire.
Yan Ci especially liked this kind of game when he was young. Next to the fire where the firewood was about to burn out, a group of friends sat in a circle, burying beans, peanuts, buds, grains and other coarse grains in the ashes, and then cooked them as snacks.
To this day, when I recall the sense of satisfaction I felt at that time, I still feel like I had endless childlike fun.
There is a shortage of food in the disaster area, so Yan Ci orders half-plates of flowers to resolve the embarrassment and avoid sitting around. He said in his heart that he didn't want to eat it, but his hands couldn't be free, so he twisted half of the red skin and stuffed it into his mouth.
A grass seed suddenly fell from the gap between the fingers, like a melon seed kernel, with lines shaped like a flying kite.
Tongchenzi! Yan Ci was secretly surprised.
Turning his eyes to look at it, he saw that the shopkeeper had a plump belly and a look of good fortune, and there was a shrewd and calculating look in his eyes. The waiter in the shop was friendly and his skin tone was dark and natural, without any trace of disguise.
The face was unfamiliar but the figure was vaguely familiar. Yan Ci suddenly thought of Zhen Xiaoer and murmured in her heart.
Tongchen seeds are a token of communication. They should not appear in remote shops for no reason, and they should not be left on the food plates of residents. This definitely has a deeper meaning.
It was getting late, and the wind and rain were just showing signs of stopping. Yan Ci pretended not to notice the strangeness, got up and prepared to pay the bill and leave.
At that time, there were crowds of people outside the door, and six practitioners who were soaked in water stepped in one after another.
A clear and sweet female voice complained: "Pedantic, there are no ghosts at all, yet you keep coming step by step."
The woman is slender, with messy black stockings, and the water dripping from her hair gently slides on the tip of her nose, like a magnolia blooming quietly with rain.
The voice was beautiful, and the diners in the hall felt like they were under a spell, and they didn't dare to say a word as soon as they stepped in.
Nightingale! Yan Ci's heart trembled, he never expected to meet her here unexpectedly.
"The green leaves on the branches are bright and red, I doubt it is easier than a hibiscus. The roots do not come out of the mud, they can only be transplanted close to the Buddha's palace."
Nightingale's beauty is so refined that others feel pity for her when they meet her, but Yan Ci doesn't think so because he knows that there is a tigress hidden under her elegant and dignified face.
