If time always flows calmly and smoothly like this, then the world will definitely have more peace. However, for various reasons, the river of time will always be tied with artificial knots.
The knot at this time was the five-day deadline set by the princess.
On the fourth day, Xiaojiu hurriedly ended his surprise study at Fengmian Villa, and together with Ge Sheng, returned to the city called Lanyin four days later.
In that catastrophe called the City of Eternal Night, due to the large number of white night ghosts participating in the battle, Lanyin City was still a bit desolate at this moment, because a large number of residents were still in bed due to serious damage to their souls. Sorry. The only good thing is that this kind of bed rest is temporary after all, and those who participated in the battle against the ghost were deliberately merciful.
In addition to the trauma caused by the ghost of the white night to the residents' hearts, the even more devastating physical damage caused by the City of Eternal Night was repaired by the saint. Therefore, despite this disaster, Lanyin City did not damage the fundamentals after all. .
Lanyin City Lord Ji Li's death in battle that night was confirmed by Xi Che. Her daughter Ji Zhiyi was personally appointed by the Emperor of Lan Ye as the next City Lord of Lanyin City, and Ao Xuehua personally The Nine Treasure Lotus Lamp was returned to her.
In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, he went to the restaurant to pay back the wine money for Ji Li, and then told those two words to Ji Zhiyi. The girl city lord with loose hair tied into a double ponytail with a purple ribbon, grew up countless years overnight.
Facing the real enemy who killed her father, she showed an intriguing silence. Finally, she thanked Xi Che in person and said that he would be one of the targets of revenge in her life.
Faced with such an accusation, the prince laughed and replied seriously: "Anyone in this world who is qualified to seek revenge from me, I will write down your name and hope that you can gain enough strength at that time."
When Xiaojiu came to Lanyin City, in addition to purchasing the ingredients for the upcoming birthday party, he also met with Ji Zhiyi in person.
The last time they met, they were still on the streets of Lanyin City, separated by the pure blue silk cloth.
One is the daughter of the city lord traveling incognito, and the other is the imperial princess who lives incognito.
At the end of the story, they still didn't know each other's identities, and Ao Xuehua's intrusion turned the encounter into a one-sided humiliation for her.
However, when they met again a few days later, the arrogant and luxurious girl became the silent and calm girl city lord, and the quiet and narrow-minded girl regained her status as a princess to a certain extent.
Xiaojiu personally sent an invitation to Ji Zhiyi. Regarding his birthday party that will be held tomorrow, Ji Zhiyi was silent after hearing it and asked the prince if he would also attend.
After getting a positive answer, she bit her lip: "It's so helpless, sometimes in this life."
In the end, the number of participants in Xiaojiu's birthday party was still fixed at nine. The father's place was artificially eliminated by her and filled in with Ji Zhiyi's name.
The shopping in Lanyin City only took half a day. After turning around and returning to the Xiaojiu Ice House, the two children were busy decorating and preparing various items.
When all this was over, the moon had already risen slightly in the distance.
Since An Ning knew Ge Sheng's arrangements for tomorrow, she allowed the saint's disciple to take a short vacation. Xiao Jiu persuaded him to stay by the lake. Since there was no reason to object, Ge Sheng agreed.
Since the breakup at the Nine Treasures Lotus Lantern, apart from the reconciliation in the City of Eternal Night, the two nominal siblings haven't had much communication. First of all, they are busy.
Secondly, at that time, Ye Xiaojiu was guarding his senior brother against fire and theft.
It was late winter and early spring, and the sky was clear at night. Although there were dark clouds covering the distance, it did not prevent them from observing the stars and the moon.
At this time, the two of them were lying on the roof of the igloo, under the bright starry sky, pillowing each other's arms, and looking at the starry sky together.
The night is long, and I am destined to say something to cheer up the night.
So it was Ge Sheng who spoke first.
"That night, I really thought I was going to lose you." Ge Sheng rested his head on Xiao Jiu's soft arm, feeling that Xiao Jiu's blue hair on his arm was as smooth as silk, cool as water, and very comfortable. There is a cool fragrance that hits your nose, but it is the faint body fragrance of Xiao Jiu. "Unexpectedly, when everything comes full circle, I will still be your brother in the end. It's like a dream."
"Big, white, stupid." Xiao Jiu looked at the starry sky and spat out each word, like ice beads rolling down a jade plate, clear and sweet: "Brother, you don't believe Xiao Jiu."
Xiao Jiu didn't wait for Ge Sheng to answer, and continued: "Yes, Xiao Jiu has some issues, too. You are my brother, but you are not something of mine."
"Hey." Ge Sheng sighed: "After all, I am not you, and I can't know what you are thinking."
Ye Qing turned his head and looked at Ge Sheng seriously, his aqua eyes filled with hazy moisture: "Ye Qing, the daughter of Lan Ye, swears in front of her mother that in this life, I will never deceive the person in front of me. If I violate it, , he will die under a thousand arrows.”
The white cat curled up under the igloo opened its eyes, blinked its strange blue eyes, and then closed them again.
How did Ge Sheng know that Xiao Jiu would make such a vicious oath so plainly? He couldn't help but asked in shock: "Xiao Jiu?"
Then he immediately reacted and said: "In this life, Ge Sheng will not tell any lies to the people in front of him. If he violates it, he will be punished by heaven."
On this night, the pair of brothers and sisters, who became brothers through the ritual of shamans, made the most difficult vow to each other.
As a witness, apart from the stars in the sky and the earth, only the white cat pretending to sleep was left.
This is an extremely awe-inspiring oath, initiated by the blue-haired princess and ended by the black-haired boy with black eyes.
When the oath ended, both of them were silent for a moment, confirming that they had no regrets, and then sighed.
It wasn't until Xiaojiu paused for a long time that he said the next sentence.
Of course, this sentence is also a ground-breaking question.
The princess looked at the sky and asked something she shouldn't have asked.
She asked: "Hey, brother, how are you?"
She paused: "The one who learned the Tiandao Sword?"
The blue-haired girl didn't hesitate at all on this question. She directly asked the most important question to Ge Sheng.
And this is a question that is almost impossible to answer directly.
Because perhaps only he and the old man knew what happened between him and the old man fishing that night.
Ge Sheng understood the intention of Xiao Jiu's question.
The intention is simple.
Give him a chance to repent.
The so-called oath is a power that gradually binds. When it is first achieved, the power is at its weakest, but as time goes by, it will become embedded in each other's blood.
Ge Sheng smiled and said, "Take a look."
