Taoist priests are merciless

Originally holding the determination to go, he was defeated again before he could say it.That farewell sentence is like chewed food, rotting in the stomach without seeing the sun.

At sunset, Bai Jinzhi drove the carriage, and brought his "fiancée" back to the mansion with a satisfied face. When he was in a good mood, he was like Zhongxia Rihui, who could roast a raw egg until it broke into chicken cubs.

Cen Shen did not agree to Bai Jinzhi's marriage proposal, but he did not refuse either.But no matter what, he couldn't say what he wanted to leave, so he had to be led by Bai Jinzhi into the boat, helped him into the carriage, and brought him back to the mansion.

During dinner, Cen Shen looked at the bowl of lotus seed porridge and asked, "Are you sick?"

Bai Jinzhi, who was chewing the chicken ribs, was stunned when he heard this, his cheeks were bulging out from the ribs in his mouth.After a while he figured it out, spat out the ribs, and said with a smile: "That's just a play, you don't have to take it seriously, the play is a woman, are you also a daughter?"

Cen Shen didn't respond, Bai Jinzhi scooped some boiled lotus seeds into his bowl, and said, "Don't think too much, you didn't stay because you think I'm dying soon", but because Like me, see how I know you, don't you?"

Cen Shen put down the bowl and spoon, went back to the wing silently, and closed the door.He repeatedly told himself that he should go, and that if he didn't go, he would harm others and himself—so that he wasted the time of hunting souls, and he couldn't escape the catastrophe; it caused Bai Jinzhi to go astray, and he might end up alone in the future .

But he had to admit that he wanted to stay, even though he was under the scourge of heaven, he might be wiped out as soon as the catastrophe came, but he was not in a hurry, as if the catastrophe was far away from him, it was just an ancient legend that never came true past legend.Although Bai Jinzhi talked a lot and looked like a slutty boy, he felt an inexplicable peace of mind when he stayed by his side, as if he was a towering tree that could help him escape the catastrophe.

He didn't know if he liked this feeling of peace of mind, but he knew that he didn't want to leave, and it was a day if he could stay one more day.

So the two of them returned to their previous life. Cen Shen lived in the room for a long time, reading and painting, meditating and dozing off; If the stories he told could be weighed, the stories he told could probably be obtained with a bullock cart. It can be said that he dug three feet into the ground, digging out the oldest secrets, just to make the beauties laugh.

However, Cen Shen has really laughed a lot recently, not because Bai Jinzhi is good at telling stories, but because he has let go of the burden in his heart, no longer thinking about Bai Jinzhi's two or three souls, and no longer entangled in the issue of whether to go or stay , so he is relaxed, his smile is weak, but he is as beautiful as a fairy, well, he is a fairy.

Bai Jinzhi wanted to organize the wedding, but Cen Shen lukewarmly stopped him every time. He didn't want to tarnish the reputation of black and white Jinzhi. Although masculinity is common in the official class, there is no one The rich and powerful dare to marry a man blatantly, and they can do whatever they want in private, but as long as they see the light, they will become the target of public criticism and be criticized miserably.

Secondly, he also knows that if he continues to be self-willed like this, if he doesn't look for souls to absorb, and doesn't take those temporarily homeless wild souls by force, he will definitely be wiped out in the catastrophe, and will be struck by lightning There is no ash left.If we get married, who will Bai Jinzhi hug and cry at that time?Wouldn't he be a widower?Still a widower who is pointed at the spine!

So Cen Shen wouldn't marry Bai Jinzhi, at most he would reward him with a few more smiling faces on weekdays, and then let him have a silly laugh on his own.

Rejected again and again, Bai Jinzhi was inevitably a little discouraged, the stories he told gradually decreased, and he stayed in the palace for more time.

I don't know if it's because the emperor is eager for his son to become a dragon, or the prince himself prefers this prince's young teacher, anyway, Bai Jinzhi stays in the palace for a longer and longer time.

There was no noise in his ears, and Cen Shen felt very clean, but he always felt that something was missing.He hasn't smiled for several days, and his deserted face is almost covered with frost.

Not long after, a popular rumor spread among the people, saying that the suave young master had a sweetheart, whose temperament and talent were comparable to that of a famous lady, temperament and temper comparable to that of Xiaojiabiyu, appearance and figure comparable to that of a fairy descended to earth, the first time he saw her In front of her face, she was fascinated by her - she is the jewel in the palm of the current Holy Master: Princess Yongling.

According to legend, one day, when Master Shaoshi was explaining the history books to the prince, Princess Yongling suddenly walked into the study, and met the eyes of Master Shaoshi who was eloquent. See love.The two of them got out of hand and quickly fell into the Haihe River, entangled with each other, you and me.And the young master even used the reason of lecturing to the prince to stay in the palace, just to see the princess more.The prince is very optimistic about the two of them, and even intends to match them up.The intention is to promote my teacher to the position of today's son-in-law!

When these words reached Cen Shen's ears, he smiled slightly and didn't care.Because he knows that Bai Jinzhi is not a person who sees things differently and wants to change, and his flair is just his appearance, and those folk rumors are just speculations and cannot be taken as true.

But he has to admit that Bai Jinzhi spends less and less time returning home. He used to see him several times a day, and it was annoying to see him. Later, it was once a day. Now, every few days, he still can't speak. .Cen Shen is a man of few words. If the two of them want to talk, it is up to Bai Jinzhi alone to support the situation. If even he has nothing to say, then there will be only silence. Now the two are eating together At that time, the atmosphere was so quiet that only the sound of chopsticks touching porcelain bowls could be heard.

The weather gradually began to enter the winter, and the sky became gray, like a layer of moldy cotton, and the cold wind blew mercilessly, raging in the streets and alleys of the capital, and the hawkers who sold sweet potatoes were wrapped in The cloth was thick and uneven, with a bulge in the east and a depression in the west. I don't know whether it was cotton or straw stuffed inside.

Just like he can't feel the heat, Cen Shen shouldn't feel the cold either, but since the beginning of winter, his body has gradually felt icy cold, as if all his internal organs have been hollowed out, leaving only a body like a walking dead, ravaged by the cold. Shattered and trembling.

Bai Jinzhi didn't ask the maid to bring the thick quilt and brazier for winter. He is too busy recently and always stays in the palace, so it is inevitable that he will forget these trivial matters.

Cen Shen wrapped up the thin autumn blanket, leaned on the bedside and lazily read miscellaneous books. He had read these books many times, and Bai Jinzhi had actually told him many stories in them, but he felt that I forgot some more, so I dug it out and reviewed it again.

When he was drowsy, a flower and bird flew into the room suddenly, Cen Shen was startled, opened his eyes, and saw a fluffy child standing in front of him.

"Mr. Xing," the child cried out eagerly when he saw him, walked to his bed and said, "Mr. Xing, tomorrow will be a catastrophe. Today I flew to the Lingxiao Palace and turned into a golden bird in front of the palace. , Hearing the Jade Emperor's message to Lei Ting, tomorrow will be a catastrophe, which is really a catastrophe that is rare in a hundred years. King Xing, are you ready?"

Knowing that the catastrophe would come, but he didn't want to come so soon, Cen Shen sat up and said noncommittally: "Why do you still remember that you are a little fairy boy in the sky, did you work in my Tianquan Palace before?"

The child shook his head and said, "No... Maybe you don't even remember it. I am the freckle on the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in front of your palace. I often stop in your courtyard to comb my feathers."

Cen Shen remembered it, and said with a smile: "I remember, I still remember that the blue bird often looks at you in a daze."

Spotfinch was terrified when he heard the name, "That stinky fox has always wanted to eat me, but fortunately you stopped him every time, and carried him into the palace, otherwise I would have been eaten by him to the point that I would not even have any hair left." Already!"

Cen Shen looked a little sad, and asked: "After I left, has he returned to Tianquan Palace?"

Spotfinch shook his head, "That stinky fox who has no conscience must not know where to go to have fun. You were demoted to the world because of him. It's good for him, he patted his ass and left without even coming back to take a look!"

Cen Shen interrupted him, his voice was a little weak, maybe he really couldn't bear the cold weather, and even his voice trembled, "Good freckle, I can't say that, my relegation to the mortal world is entirely my own reason, and He has nothing to do, and he doesn't know about my descending to earth, so I can't blame him. Well, I'll trouble you to come down today and let me know about Heaven's Tribulation. Don't worry about me. I can handle it. Go back to Heaven, Heaven's Tribulation If you don’t have eyes, it’s easy to accidentally injure your life.”

Knowing that Cen Shen can survive the catastrophe, Banque's heart was more than half relieved, afraid that he would worry about herself, and didn't want to cause trouble for him, so Banque changed back to its original body, flapped its wings and left.

Cen Shen thought that the catastrophe was approaching and that his time had come, so he put on a thicker robe and went to the main room to bid farewell to Bai Jinzhi when he came back.After staying for such a long time, he still has to leave, he can't stay in this white mansion, the sky thunder may smash this house into ashes.

Bai Jinzhi has been busy recently, so he hasn't visited him for several days, he thought he would wait for a while, but as soon as he left the wing room, he ran into Bai Jinzhi who was returning home, and a woman beside him.

At this time, the sky was dark, but the lights in the mansion were bright and filled with fire.Therefore, after a few steps, one can still find that the woman was born with a beautiful pink face, almond eyes and red lips, and a smile on her lips. She has an unforgettable beauty and temperament. One can tell that she must be a royal nobleman just by looking at her gorgeous attire. Even the satin of the flower pot shoes is inlaid with gold thread.

The woman and Cen Shen looked at each other, and was startled. She was most proud of her appearance, but now she saw this man in front of her, and she was shocked. For the first time, she felt unconfident about her appearance. .

When Bai Jinzhi saw Cen Shen, he lowered his head and smiled softly at the woman, and whispered something in her ear. The woman nodded and walked into Bai Jinzhi's bedroom with small steps.

After the woman left, Cen Shen approached Bai Jinzhi and said, "I have something to tell you."

Bai Jinzhi looked in the direction of the bedroom, interrupted him and said: "Sheng Yan, I have some urgent matters to do now, you wait in your room for a while, I will come to you later!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his response, she went straight to her room and closed the door.

Cen Shen looked at the brightly lit bedroom for a long while, then silently lowered his head, turned and walked back to his wing.But after walking a few steps, he suddenly heard a woman's laughter coming from the bedroom, provoking his ears and attracting him to approach.

He walked softly outside the bedroom, leaning his back against the cold wall, listening to the conversation inside.

A soft female voice came into my ears: "He looks so good-looking, are you really not interested in him?"

The answer was the all-too-familiar voice: "Of course, didn't I tell you? He is a down-and-out actor. I took him in because of his pity. How could he be interested in him!"

"Then I want you to drive him away now, are you willing?"

The voice of the answer was very firm, just like when he was courting on the lake beach that day, "Of course, if you don't like Linger, I will let him go today. You will be the mistress of this mansion in the future. How can you be in the yard?" What's in your eyes?"

A woman's delicate laughter came from the room, thin and long, scratching Cen Shen's ears, making his eardrums ache.

He lowered his eyes, quietly returned to his room, sat quietly at the table, and in his hand was the book of stories he had just finished flipping through.

In the middle of the night, the door opened, and a slender figure flashed in. He was wearing loose pajamas and a thick cloak over it, and he didn't look like he wanted to stay for a long time.

"Ouch," Bai Jinzhi sat down at the table, rubbing his hands and panting, shivering uncontrollably, "Why is it so cold in your room? It's like an ice cellar!"

Cen Shen looked at him indifferently, without any fluctuations in his eyes, and even his voice was as pale as white water, unable to wring out half of the juice, "Do you have anything to say to me?"

Bai Jinzhi suddenly stopped moving, and was taken aback for a moment, as if he guessed that he had heard the conversation in the room just now, so he simply got bolder and went straight to the point: "With all due respect, Shengyan, it is not suitable for you to stay now. I'm in my house, as you saw just now, Princess Yongling and I are in love, if you stay, I'm afraid you will provoke her suspicion. After all, the princess is different from other women, she can help me to have a smooth sailing in the officialdom. Gao Sheng, so I have to take good care of her."

Cen Shen nodded lightly, and said, "Okay, I'll leave tonight."

After finishing speaking, he stood up and bid him farewell: "Thank you brother Bai for taking care of you in the past year. Cen is very grateful. Let's just say goodbye and see you indefinitely."

Bai Jinzhi also stood up, keeping his eyes fixed on his jade-like cheeks, as if he was reluctant to let such a beauty have such a "no future".

He approached him and looked at him, his eyes were full of love, spring waves rippling, "Sheng Yan, considering our past friendship, can I kiss you?"

Cen Shen stared at him, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and two black eyebrows, who were born in a romantic way, with constant luck.Pick flowers and love them, and then discard them, stepping on the corpses of flowers to rise to the top, the scenery is infinite.

The judge was right, and he was right, but he knew it too late.

Cen Shen closed his eyes, feeling Bai Jinzhi's fiery lips gradually approaching, pressing against his lips.He couldn't feel the heat at first, but at this moment he really felt the temperature of his lips, which was as warm as the spring sun and as soft as catkins, enveloping and harassing his lips.

Cen took a deep breath and began to inhale, sucking the long-coveted soul into his mouth.The soul is like a faint breath, stripped from Bai Jinzhi's body, taken away by him, and taken as his own.He was sucking hard, sucking fascinatedly, feeling that his body was becoming more and more full, as if a spring of water poured in, filling his empty body and allowing him to return to the fairy body.

And Bai Jinzhi didn't seem to notice it at all, he didn't know that his soul was leaving him, he didn't know that he was about to become a mummy, he was still immersed in the joy of kissing, confused and fascinated.

On the second day, there was heavy rain, thunder, and lightning split the curtain of the sky time and time again like sharp knives, making everyone in the world frightened.

People thought it was just a rainstorm, and after the rain, it was all right.But the cultivating demons and ghosts all know that this is a catastrophe that is rare in a hundred years. Those who survive may become immortals, and those who suffer will be wiped out, and there will be no chance to come back.

To live is to live forever; to die is to perish.This is a crazy bet, and the bets will be followed one after another.

Cen Shen sat silently under a tree in the wild. He originally wanted to stay in a ruined temple, but he was afraid that the thunder would destroy the temple and make other passers-by take shelter from the rain, so he had no choice but to go to the wilderness, where there were no people. .

He silently waited for the thunder to come and kill him.If he wants to survive the catastrophe, he needs to collect the Yanghunting soul, but the Yangyuan soul must be obtained in a sufficient amount to support his cultivation base and real body. Originally, he had a year to collect it slowly, but he is lucky. In a year's time, I absorbed a soul, and it was too late to even make up for it.

Cen Shen sat silently under the tree for a day. When he opened his eyes, he found that the sky had cleared after the rain, and a rainbow hung on the sky.

But he actually ascended, the immortal law returned, and he returned to the immortal world.He returned to the Tianquan Palace again, and became the noble and desolate star official of Wenqu, in charge of Wenyun, watching all living beings quietly.
