I have a deep love for Zhenjun
Chapter 79 Wushan 1 Duan Yun Part 1
"It is often said today that there is Gansang in the north, Xianyin in the east, and no master in the southwest. However, thousands of years ago, there was the Xuandan tribe in the west, which can be as famous as Xianyin and Gansang. The Xuandan people belong to the Xuanniao lineage. Among the Xuanniao lineage, the Tianming Xuanniao is the leader.
There is a record in "Nine Chapters of the Western Classic": Those who get the mysterious bird of destiny will get the Tao.Thanks to the blessing of the divine bird, the Xuandan tribe became more and more prosperous and flourished for a while.
However, good times don't last forever.The new Tianming Xuanniao left his post without permission one day and disappeared.After several investigations, they found that his life card had been extinguished, and there was no bones left.
The mysterious bird of destiny is derived from the way of heaven, and should have been passed down from generation to generation.However, after such an accident, Xuan Dan will never lose the protection of the divine bird, and his qi will be completely exhausted, and it will be difficult to return to its peak.
Ten years later, Elder Fuyu, who had been traveling abroad for many years, brought back a young boy.The young boy has half fairy bones and half demon bones, the two serve as checks and balances, and he has a half demon body.The body of a half-demon is extremely variable, because it blurs the distinction between good and evil, either the best or the worst.
Therefore, the birth of this son violated the way of heaven, and he should have been killed to avoid future troubles.However, Fuyu rejected all opinions and accepted him as a adopted son, intending to lead him to be kind and make him immortal, and named him Zhuluo. "
——Excerpt from "A Section of Cloud in Wushan"
The Flower Ceremony is held once every ten years.
As the name suggests, it is a chance for all the immortals to gather on Linlang Tianque to enjoy flowers, chant poems, and make love.
It sounds elegant, but in detail, there is nothing new and interesting in it-especially for a layman like me who doesn't understand the key points.Every day on this day, I can only stand on one side, letting others talk like a river, while I watch my heart, praying that the time of suffering will pass quickly.
Therefore, when I woke up today, thinking that I would go to watch the ceremony with my master again, I sighed deeply and was very upset.
But upset is upset.As a servant who abides by his duties, he will definitely not give up his job because of these trivial matters, otherwise, how can he be worthy of the master's careful cultivation of me for so many years?
It is Chen time now.
The door of the master's room was closed tightly, but through the window lattice, a little light could be seen.I didn't dare to enter rashly, and tapped three times as usual, before I could ask, a voice came from inside: "Wait a moment."
I wisely stopped disturbing, turned sideways and guarded the door, and counted sheep with my fingers.When the six hundredth sheep were counted, the door was finally pushed open from the inside.
Hearing the sound, I had a flattering smile on my face. The word "Master" was on the tip of my tongue, ready to go, but when I saw the man's face clearly, I swallowed it back.
The one who came was Yunyi.
The great elder of the Xuandan tribe is also the master's personal master.
Today he was wearing a jet-black cloak again, holding the side of the hood with his hands, revealing a cold and beautiful pale face.When he saw me, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were firmly locked on me.
Those phoenix eyes had no whites, and the black like splashed ink filled the entire eye sockets, compared with the stagnant water, it was a little more sinking.When looking at people, he even hangs it high, making his eyes look sinister and terrifying.
In addition to being cold, it also has a subtle sticky feeling, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
I have always been very afraid of him. I was so afraid that even if I only saw him from a distance, the soles of my feet would tremble unconsciously, and I was about to lose my footing.
Even so, I forced myself to look at him and forced a smile: "See, see... Elder Yun."
Yunyi stared at me for a long while, then let out a casual "hmm" as a response.Then, with characteristic light steps, he walked away quietly.
As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief, I heard someone calling me: "Zhu Luo."
I am very familiar with this voice, changed my sad face just now, jumped up and down in front of that person, and said with a smile: "Master!"
If it is said that the person I fear the most in Xuan Dan is Yun Yi, then the one I like the most, admire the most, and admire the most——
It's my master, Yun Mo.
Although they are masters and apprentices, the two of them really can't find any similarities.The former is indifferent and mean, and when he is in charge of the affairs of the family, he behaves quite cruelly and cruelly; while the latter is free-spirited, like the light and the wind and the moon, which makes me yearn for it.
"But you have been waiting for a long time?" The master smiled and said softly, "Just now I was discussing important matters in the clan with Master."
Even for an insignificant servant like me, he will treat him with equal respect and 12 points of patience.
I shook my head and wanted to say that soon, as long as I do things for my master, no matter how hard or tiring I am, I am willing.But seeing the side face of the master who is so clean and dusty, these heartfelt words seem to have become the most unbearable swear words in the world.
I fell silent, slowed down a little, and followed closely behind my master.Maintain a distance within three steps and one step away.
Alas, although the master's back is also very good-looking, it is more elegant and upright than the Mengzong bamboo planted in the courtyard.However, I am the most greedy person, and also the most aggressive.
How can it be enough to just look at the back?I just hope that one day I can walk side by side with him... It would be better to hold five fingers together.
Thinking about it, I would never dare to act on such a rebellious idea.It's not that I'm timid, it's just that I've had a hard time doing it before.
I remember that there was a time when I was practicing swords and kneading flowers and broken jade in the last move of the third form, but I couldn't do it right no matter what.Seeing that I was downcast, the master broke off a flower branch and used it as a sword to show me the main points of sword moves.
The more patient he was, the more mistakes I made.The tip of the sword trembled slightly, and inadvertently drew a mottled bloodstain on the back of his hand.
I panicked, and quickly dropped the sword, holding his hand, trying to heal his wound, but he pushed it away calmly.
As if he had been greatly offended, he stepped back a few steps one after another, allowing the blood to slowly trickle down his fingertips and flow into the ground.There was almost no smile on his face, and there was an unconscious indifference and alienation all over his body.
Master doesn't like being touched by me.
Now that I have learned my lesson, I will never make the same mistake again.
On the way to the moon chariot, I kept telling myself not to flatter the horse, but when I got to the moon chariot, I still couldn't help showing my courtesy to the beauty.
He rushed forward with a stride, put down the curtain, and made a gesture of please.
The master has long been accustomed to this, smiled gently and said, "Thank you."
"No, it's not too much work."
Even though they have been together day and night for so many years, they still know that those pair of water-like phoenix eyes are born like this, and they are affectionate when they smile, even if they don't.It's just... Even though I can't tell how much affection there is, my ears still burn unconsciously.
Fearing that he would see the clue, I hastily let go of the curtain I was holding in my hand, turned over lightly, and climbed onto the seat in front of me.The Vermilion Bird carried under the seat probably thought I was reckless, so he moaned dissatisfiedly at the top of his voice.
I sighed, and spent some time trying to appease it. After everything was settled, I raised my voice and asked, "Master, are you sitting still?"
A low "hmm" came from behind.Perhaps it was because through the curtain, it sounded very erratic, and it came to and fro in the gentle breeze, lingering in my ears, and it just made me taste some of the charming feelings about Fengyue.
Stop - stop stop.
I came back to my senses, slapped myself twice, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't be rebellious! Don't think wildly!"
"Zhu Luo." Hearing a strange sound, the voice was a bit worried, "What happened?"
"No, nothing!" I quickly covered my face and chattered nonsense with him, "There is a mosquito that has been chasing me and biting me, but it is not as advanced as my cultivation level, and has already been killed by my palm. I am about to do something It recites a reincarnation sutra, hoping that it can enter reincarnation soon."
There was a moment of silence in the back, and a chuckle suddenly came out, without further words.
Are you making fun of me?
Without thinking too much about it, I shook the copper bell in my hand, and the vermilion bird whistled in response, fluttered its wings, and flew straight into the sea of clouds.
Chaohuali has always been highly respected by immortals.Although it is not yet the time for the ceremony, there are already a lot of immortals here and there, even the Emperor Zhaolan is no exception.
Walking through the flower path, I murmured softly, "I don't know what to scatter these petals. If they fall on the ground and step on them, they will all be crushed into mud? What a waste of things."
The master has sharp ears and eyes, so he can hear clearly.He turned his head, smiled and nodded the corner of his mouth: "Here."
I touched the corner of my mouth in confusion, and looked in front of my eyes. It turned out to be a snow-white petal, and I don't know how long it stayed on my face.
Let’s just say that these morning flower gifts are boring, they are all weird things, and now they make me embarrassing in front of the master...
Really, really pissed me off!
Halfway through the walk, the master suddenly stopped.I was competing with that petal, but when I saw the situation was different, I raised my head in bewilderment.It turned out that it was Zhao Lan who was sitting on the high seat and waved to the master, motioning for him to come forward and take a seat.
As far as I know, Zhaolan is the master's father, but for some reason, we can't see each other often, and we can only see each other at the banquet ceremony.
I don't know what the two of them said in secret, Zhao Lan took the lead in compromising, put her hand on the armrest again, closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the seat, no longer pressing.
The move was expected.The master acts in a low-key manner, has no intention of power, and does not want to be involved in gossip about power struggles, so he never gets too close to Zhao Lan, lest he will be criticized.
Presumably the master must feel uncomfortable doing this.
I sighed lightly, but didn't say much, and sat down with the owner in the corner on the left.
Although it is hidden here, there are still good people who come here to chat with the vines.
I kept my eyes fixed on the rear, and I had no intention of looking at the faces of those immortals, nor did I want to eavesdrop on what they were talking about.
At this moment, my mind is all focused on the small and exquisite jade bowl placed in front of the master's desk, which contains my favorite snow silk soup, and is also topped with amber-colored Tanghua honey.
After sniffing, you can still smell the faint fragrance.
I watched eagerly, almost seeing a hole in the master's back.While politely greeting the visitor, he shook his head slightly at me.Of course I understood what he meant, he was asking me to be patient for a while longer.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
He taught me this phrase, I remember.
Fewer and fewer fairy families passed by on the flower path, and finally only the flower girls on both sides of the path were still waiting in place dutifully.
After waiting for a while, I glanced up and saw that there were no empty seats, presumably all the immortals who were supposed to be there had already arrived, but I didn't know why Zhaolan kept silent.
I was thinking about Xuesi soup, and I was burning with anxiety.But the host poured the tea unhurriedly, without raising his eyes, he said: "There is only one person left."
"Who is it?" I thought to myself, he is quite impressive, dare to teach all the immortals are waiting for him.
"You have seen it in Xuandan before."
I am worried.Over the years, except for the master and the cloud of the face of Hades.The rest of the insignificant people and things have never caused the slightest disturbance in my heart.Even if I've seen it, I probably won't have any impression of it.
Wait, could it be——
The door was pushed open suddenly, and a man walked in, wearing an azurite court dress, and decorated with thirteen flowing fire beads on his crown.He has a solemn expression, and his light gray eyes are cold, as if refined from black iron in a cold pool.
He straightened his posture, kept his eyes fixed, and stopped every step.
Halfway through the journey, the bead chain hanging towards the crown did not shake at all.
People who don't know see it, and may praise him as "dignified and courteous", but teach me to see it, forgive me, I can only sneer, and send him "pretentious".
This person's name is Zhaohua, and he is the eldest son of Emperor Zhaolan and the half-brother of the master.
He and I have a bad relationship.
Three months ago, Zhaohua came to our Xuandan as a guest.
The night before he came, I was fined by the master to copy books all night because I was lazy in my studies.On the second day, I was so tired that I couldn't lift my spirits to do anything.
In the afternoon, I lay my pillow on the book and wanted to take a nap in the courtyard.
Fortunately, he picked up the pen and drew a bastard on my face.But I didn't realize it, and when I woke up, I ran around Xuandan with this funny face, and I was ridiculed countless times behind my back.
The most hateful thing is that my master saw my unsightly appearance.The plague god was still fanning the flames in my master's ear, saying that I was glaring like a red-eyed bastard, and even wrote a poem for me on the spot.
I am a person who holds grudges the most. When others bully me and humiliate me, I have to keep a careful account in my heart so that I can repay it in the future.
If it weren't for the face of the master, I would never have turned this matter over so easily.
Unexpectedly, I let him go, but he refused to let me go.
During these three months in Xuandan, the God of Plague did not do business all day long, but always came to find fault with me, and even begged for me from the master, saying what...to be his attendant in Xuandan.
Pooh, he deserves it too?
To tell you the truth, the sight of his face turned my stomach.
When the plague passed in front of me, I couldn't help but rolled my eyes very reservedly.Only halfway through the turn, he seemed to have sensed something, suddenly stopped his steps, turned his head slightly, and the corner of his eyes fell on me.
The fragrant mist is faint, the west wind is curling up, rolling up three thousand pieces of ice cream, blowing down the sky and raining flowers, just a piece of it stops at the end of his eyes, it is better than red plums in the snow, it just melts the cold and serious attitude.
My heart stopped for a moment.
I have to admit that although Zhaohua has a bad temper, he has an excellent skin.Standing there, it can be described as jade bone cold soul.Coupled with the extremely light-colored eyes and his unsmiling appearance, he can indeed bluff many unsuspecting immortals.
—but he couldn't frighten me.
Although he caught me on the spot for rolling my eyes, but now that the immortal family is gathered here, he won't be able to quarrel with me on the spot, showing his true colors?
Just as I expected, Zhaohua was concerned about his appearance, slowly took off the petal at the end of the eye, played it back and forth with his fingertips, and then raised his eyes and smiled at me—a kind of smile that is not on the surface.
"Wait for me outside the hall later." It was sound transmission.
After speaking, loosen the two fingers, the petals fall off, and they are crushed into dust.
Zhaohua straightened his expression, returned to his previous cold and arrogant posture, and gradually walked towards the high seat.
Waiting for him outside the hall?I can't be bothered.Who knows if he came up with another trick to play tricks on me and embarrass me.
I just thought that these words came in one ear and out the other, and I lowered my head again, staring at the snow silk soup in a trance.The morning flower ceremony has been held on time, when will the master plan to open a small stove for me?
It was what I thought in my heart, but for some reason, I asked it out of my mouth.
The master sighed very lightly, as if compromising.
Turning his eyes softly like flowing water, he motioned for me to sit not far from him, then put two fingers together, and pushed the jade bowl in front of me: "Drink slowly, don't be like last time."
Xu thought of something interesting, he raised his eyes and smiled at me.The eyes are like emerald green, like blue waves at night, when the wind blows, there will be thousands of hectares of waves rising and falling.
I was fascinated by the master's smile, and I didn't realize the deep meaning of his words for a moment, but when I realized it, my face suddenly became hot and red.
Last time, I drank the Xuesi soup in my hands too quickly, and I felt nauseous. I pulled his sleeve and groaned for a long time.
Thinking about it now...it really hurts the image.
This time I have learned a lesson, and I am determined to be courteous, eat slowly, and never let the master see me laughing.
Seeing that I was pretending to be reserved, the master looked at it with interest for a while, then asked casually: "What did brother Cai just tell you?"
"He asked me to wait for him outside the hall later." I swallowed Xuesi, although I was puzzled why the master would know about this, but I told the truth and complained a few words, "He is the most evil-hearted, Eighty percent of them want to have fun with me again. I don't want to go."
Hearing this, the master seemed to be lost in thought, tapped his fingertips on the table, and did not go to watch the singing and dancing during the banquet, but lowered his eyes silently, his expression was hidden in the dark, and he could not see clearly.
Hearing this regular knocking sound, I felt inexplicably panicked: "Master, why...why didn't you speak suddenly?"
He paused with his fingertips, and said in a flat tone: "It's nothing." He waved his hand to summon the fairy servant who was waiting by the side, added several bowls of porridge soup, and placed them in front of me one by one.
After eating, I immediately put aside my doubts and praised him: "Master is so kind to me."
When the morning flower ceremony was over, there were already six empty bowls in front of me, stacked high and high to form a hill.I haven't felt satiated yet, and when I was about to reach out to the seventh bowl, I was stopped by the host.
He clasped the bowl with his pale fingertips, and with a slight force, the jade bowl was moved out of my reach, and his tone was rare and strong: "Zhu Luo, don't overeat."
I didn't dare to do anything wrong, and said unwillingly: "Yes."
After the morning flowers were over, the master was summoned by Zhaolan.I was afraid that the God of Plague was also there, so I hesitated in my steps, but when I got closer, Zhaohua, who was sitting on the high seat, was nowhere to be seen, maybe he had left the hall early.
I just breathed a sigh of relief.
Different from the gentleness and indifference of the master, Zhao Lan was uncharacteristically eager, no more majestic and solemn than before, and even asked about food, clothing, housing and transportation over and over again.
However, no matter what Zhaolan asked, the master just smiled slightly and said: "Everything is fine, father don't need to worry about it."
Such one-sided pleasantries will eventually end in silence.
The two were silent for a while, Zhao Lan sighed, patted the master's shoulder lightly, and said, "Father, I'm sorry."
The master didn't say "everything is fine" this time, but said with a smile, "Father, why did you say that? Mo'er is already extremely grateful for being able to stand in Linlang Tianque today, and dare not ask for more."
Zhao Lan was silent.
Bid farewell to Zhaolan, and leave the gate of the palace.
I turned around to look for the moon chariot, but was stopped by the master.He walked to another place, and the residual voice came to his ears: "Follow me."
In the past, when climbing up to Linlang Tianque, one would walk in a hurry, and the scenery during the process could be passed by at a glance.If you want me to have any impression of this place...it is probably the sea of clouds that lingers all year round.
Vast and vast, boundless and boundless.
The owner leaned on the building and watched, his fingertips flashed faintly, and with the vigor of hitting rocks and breaking waves, he shook the sea of clouds out of the twilight tide.
After a long silence, he asked softly, "How about Linlang Tianque?"
Without thinking, I said, "It's not as good as our Wushan's Xuandan."
"Is it really not as good as Xuan Dan?" The master pointed to the bright moon floating in the sea of clouds, and his voice became softer, as if he was tempting, "Look, the moon seen here is obviously rounder and brighter than Xuan Dan. Is not it?"
The night is long and the silver is far away, and the bright moon that can only be seen from a distance on weekdays seems to be within reach.It is indeed a beautiful scenery that Xuandan has never seen before.
but……
"But Xuandan has a master." This remark was offensive, and I knew it was inappropriate, so my voice became softer and softer, "Linlang Tianque does not."
He didn't know if he heard my words, so he closed his eyes and just covered it with a smile.
It's rare to see the master looking so defenseless, the black eyelashes are long and straight, casting a shadow under the eyes.
I breathed lightly, stuck out my fingertips like a ghost, trying to dare to commit another crime again.
If... If the master is still angry with me like last time, I will cut off the love with a sharp knife in the future, and never go beyond the thunder pool.
"Bamboo, Luo."
Seeing that I was about to succeed, someone behind me suddenly called my name.He paused every word, quite a bit like gnashing his teeth.
Being disturbed like this, the master opened his eyes instantly, and met my eyes.He was slightly startled, his eyes shifted to my dishonest hand, he frowned, hesitant to speak.
I cursed bad luck secretly, but I could only admit that I was unlucky.Twirling her fingertips lightly, she retracted her hand as if nothing had happened, and found an excuse to prevaricate: "There was a mosquito just now."
"Is that so?" The master didn't ask any further questions, and a just-right smile floated on his face, not too much, not too little, "I'm sorry for your trouble."
"No, you're welcome."
Seeing him smiling, I felt a little carried away, wishing I could wave my hand and conjure up millions of mosquitoes, and kill them all in front of him, to show off my prestige.
I was just having fun, when gusts of cold wind hit, I shivered unpreparedly, and seeing the master's expression change slightly, I immediately realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, before I could turn around, my collar was picked up by an external force, pulling me back.
Terrific.The prestige did not succeed, but it increased the morale of others.
Although this posture is not painful or itchy to me, and there is no need to break free, but my upper body is pressed against the chest of the visitor, and the posture is really intriguing.
Seeing the master's eyes getting colder, I felt anxious.After trying my best to break free, I turned my head angrily, glared at the back, and said sharply, "Zhaohua, let me go!"
He not only tried every means to tease me, but also insulted my reputation.It is useless even if the master pleads for him today, I must fight him to the death before I give up.
I swung my arms and beat me randomly, but because I was controlled by him, I was all avoided.Later, he was annoyed by me, so he tied me together with a gold rope.
"You, what are you going to do?" Seeing that I couldn't move, I felt a little scared, and my tone softened.
Zhaohua had been tossed enough by me just now, and a few of the flowing fire beads hanging from the crown were also scattered.
He stood in front of me with an extremely displeased look on his face, his light gray eyes were full of light, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "I told you to wait for me outside the hall, why are you so disobedient?"
I said bitterly, if he told me to go, I have to go?Who gave him a bad habit?I should really do justice for the heavens and discipline him for his ineffective mother.
But after all, I still have a bit of taboo, I dare not speak freely, I can only hold back some tears, and look at the master with tears in my eyes: "Master save me!"
In the farce just now, the master just stood aside coldly, extremely indifferent.Only after hearing my call for help, did he change his expression, reveal that invariable smile, and persuade softly: "Zhu Luo didn't mean to offend, please forgive him, brother."
The master really is still facing me.I couldn't help being flustered, I just wanted to break free from the gold rope, and a suckling swallow threw itself into the forest, and then I threw myself into his arms.
For some reason, the God of Plague looked even worse when he saw me flirting with my master, and said clearly: "What brother Yun said is very true." But he took a step forward calmly, just blocking the way between me and the master. between.
After that, no matter how much I looked around, I could only meet Zhaohua's unlucky face.
Seeing that the meeting with my master, Queqiao, was indefinitely, my face sank, and I asked him straightforwardly: "What are you going to do?"
Zhaohua didn't make a sound, put away the bundle of gold ropes, and raised his hand again.From the corner of my eye, I realized that he was holding a food box in his left hand, which was made of extremely exquisite and luxurious materials, and it was also carved with a relief of cranes.Jumping like a fluttering canopy, raising its wings like flying snow.
"what is this?"
"open to take a look."
Forgive the master here, he dare not make mistakes at will.I opened the food box, wisps of green smoke lingered out, and I waved it away, and there were actually two bowls of snow silk soup that I had been thinking about day and night.
But poisoned?Or what is smiling?I glanced suspiciously at the food box, then at Zhaohua, a little unsure of his intentions.
Zhaohuayu's face was dyed red, and his expression was slightly uncomfortable. He coughed lightly, and looked away: "Don't like it?"
Naturally I like it.But no matter how much I like something in his hands, it has become my dislike.
"Fake good intentions. Keep it for yourself." As soon as the words finished, I was afraid that he would grab the collar again, and hurriedly took three steps at a time, and hid behind the master.
With the blessing, I felt a little relieved, poked my head out, and made a face at him again.
For some reason today, Zhaohua was not angry when I provoked him like this.Mo Ran put away the food box, turned around, her eyes clearly fell on me, but she said to the master: "Brother Yun, since you are here, why don't you stay for a few more days."
Never.I was startled and clutched the master's sleeve tightly.
Last time, it was very difficult to send this plague god away from Xuan Dan.Without him, I ate well, slept soundly, and lived an unbelievably happy life.I haven't been free for a few days... I don't want to find my own bad luck every day.
The master declined quietly: "There are still important matters in the family, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time."
"Only three days." Zhao Hua paused, "Brother Yun, do you still remember? It's my birthday in three days."
"..."
According to my understanding of the master, once he remains silent, he is shaken.Thinking of the next three days that I might have to suffer again, I was dizzy for a while, and I was about to lose my footing.
"The queen mother also often said that you are alone, and you spend less time with us than you. Right now, taking advantage of my birthday, we just have a gathering, and she also has a lot of things to say to you."
The servant was indomitable, and what he said was wildly colorful.The owner's relatives have been shallow since childhood, so he may be moved by it.
But I don't believe it.
In my opinion, the owner is Zhaohua's half-brother, not the daughter of Empress Fuling.Since there is no kinship, how could she be so kind to arrange a family reunion?There must be some intention in it, so don't be careless.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say: "Master, think twice!"
"It's nothing." The master seemed to have made up his mind, and nodded slightly, "Miss Fu Ling's kind intentions, Yun Mo appreciates it. If that's the case, I will let my brother arrange everything."
There is a record in "Nine Chapters of the Western Classic": Those who get the mysterious bird of destiny will get the Tao.Thanks to the blessing of the divine bird, the Xuandan tribe became more and more prosperous and flourished for a while.
However, good times don't last forever.The new Tianming Xuanniao left his post without permission one day and disappeared.After several investigations, they found that his life card had been extinguished, and there was no bones left.
The mysterious bird of destiny is derived from the way of heaven, and should have been passed down from generation to generation.However, after such an accident, Xuan Dan will never lose the protection of the divine bird, and his qi will be completely exhausted, and it will be difficult to return to its peak.
Ten years later, Elder Fuyu, who had been traveling abroad for many years, brought back a young boy.The young boy has half fairy bones and half demon bones, the two serve as checks and balances, and he has a half demon body.The body of a half-demon is extremely variable, because it blurs the distinction between good and evil, either the best or the worst.
Therefore, the birth of this son violated the way of heaven, and he should have been killed to avoid future troubles.However, Fuyu rejected all opinions and accepted him as a adopted son, intending to lead him to be kind and make him immortal, and named him Zhuluo. "
——Excerpt from "A Section of Cloud in Wushan"
The Flower Ceremony is held once every ten years.
As the name suggests, it is a chance for all the immortals to gather on Linlang Tianque to enjoy flowers, chant poems, and make love.
It sounds elegant, but in detail, there is nothing new and interesting in it-especially for a layman like me who doesn't understand the key points.Every day on this day, I can only stand on one side, letting others talk like a river, while I watch my heart, praying that the time of suffering will pass quickly.
Therefore, when I woke up today, thinking that I would go to watch the ceremony with my master again, I sighed deeply and was very upset.
But upset is upset.As a servant who abides by his duties, he will definitely not give up his job because of these trivial matters, otherwise, how can he be worthy of the master's careful cultivation of me for so many years?
It is Chen time now.
The door of the master's room was closed tightly, but through the window lattice, a little light could be seen.I didn't dare to enter rashly, and tapped three times as usual, before I could ask, a voice came from inside: "Wait a moment."
I wisely stopped disturbing, turned sideways and guarded the door, and counted sheep with my fingers.When the six hundredth sheep were counted, the door was finally pushed open from the inside.
Hearing the sound, I had a flattering smile on my face. The word "Master" was on the tip of my tongue, ready to go, but when I saw the man's face clearly, I swallowed it back.
The one who came was Yunyi.
The great elder of the Xuandan tribe is also the master's personal master.
Today he was wearing a jet-black cloak again, holding the side of the hood with his hands, revealing a cold and beautiful pale face.When he saw me, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were firmly locked on me.
Those phoenix eyes had no whites, and the black like splashed ink filled the entire eye sockets, compared with the stagnant water, it was a little more sinking.When looking at people, he even hangs it high, making his eyes look sinister and terrifying.
In addition to being cold, it also has a subtle sticky feeling, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
I have always been very afraid of him. I was so afraid that even if I only saw him from a distance, the soles of my feet would tremble unconsciously, and I was about to lose my footing.
Even so, I forced myself to look at him and forced a smile: "See, see... Elder Yun."
Yunyi stared at me for a long while, then let out a casual "hmm" as a response.Then, with characteristic light steps, he walked away quietly.
As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief, I heard someone calling me: "Zhu Luo."
I am very familiar with this voice, changed my sad face just now, jumped up and down in front of that person, and said with a smile: "Master!"
If it is said that the person I fear the most in Xuan Dan is Yun Yi, then the one I like the most, admire the most, and admire the most——
It's my master, Yun Mo.
Although they are masters and apprentices, the two of them really can't find any similarities.The former is indifferent and mean, and when he is in charge of the affairs of the family, he behaves quite cruelly and cruelly; while the latter is free-spirited, like the light and the wind and the moon, which makes me yearn for it.
"But you have been waiting for a long time?" The master smiled and said softly, "Just now I was discussing important matters in the clan with Master."
Even for an insignificant servant like me, he will treat him with equal respect and 12 points of patience.
I shook my head and wanted to say that soon, as long as I do things for my master, no matter how hard or tiring I am, I am willing.But seeing the side face of the master who is so clean and dusty, these heartfelt words seem to have become the most unbearable swear words in the world.
I fell silent, slowed down a little, and followed closely behind my master.Maintain a distance within three steps and one step away.
Alas, although the master's back is also very good-looking, it is more elegant and upright than the Mengzong bamboo planted in the courtyard.However, I am the most greedy person, and also the most aggressive.
How can it be enough to just look at the back?I just hope that one day I can walk side by side with him... It would be better to hold five fingers together.
Thinking about it, I would never dare to act on such a rebellious idea.It's not that I'm timid, it's just that I've had a hard time doing it before.
I remember that there was a time when I was practicing swords and kneading flowers and broken jade in the last move of the third form, but I couldn't do it right no matter what.Seeing that I was downcast, the master broke off a flower branch and used it as a sword to show me the main points of sword moves.
The more patient he was, the more mistakes I made.The tip of the sword trembled slightly, and inadvertently drew a mottled bloodstain on the back of his hand.
I panicked, and quickly dropped the sword, holding his hand, trying to heal his wound, but he pushed it away calmly.
As if he had been greatly offended, he stepped back a few steps one after another, allowing the blood to slowly trickle down his fingertips and flow into the ground.There was almost no smile on his face, and there was an unconscious indifference and alienation all over his body.
Master doesn't like being touched by me.
Now that I have learned my lesson, I will never make the same mistake again.
On the way to the moon chariot, I kept telling myself not to flatter the horse, but when I got to the moon chariot, I still couldn't help showing my courtesy to the beauty.
He rushed forward with a stride, put down the curtain, and made a gesture of please.
The master has long been accustomed to this, smiled gently and said, "Thank you."
"No, it's not too much work."
Even though they have been together day and night for so many years, they still know that those pair of water-like phoenix eyes are born like this, and they are affectionate when they smile, even if they don't.It's just... Even though I can't tell how much affection there is, my ears still burn unconsciously.
Fearing that he would see the clue, I hastily let go of the curtain I was holding in my hand, turned over lightly, and climbed onto the seat in front of me.The Vermilion Bird carried under the seat probably thought I was reckless, so he moaned dissatisfiedly at the top of his voice.
I sighed, and spent some time trying to appease it. After everything was settled, I raised my voice and asked, "Master, are you sitting still?"
A low "hmm" came from behind.Perhaps it was because through the curtain, it sounded very erratic, and it came to and fro in the gentle breeze, lingering in my ears, and it just made me taste some of the charming feelings about Fengyue.
Stop - stop stop.
I came back to my senses, slapped myself twice, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't be rebellious! Don't think wildly!"
"Zhu Luo." Hearing a strange sound, the voice was a bit worried, "What happened?"
"No, nothing!" I quickly covered my face and chattered nonsense with him, "There is a mosquito that has been chasing me and biting me, but it is not as advanced as my cultivation level, and has already been killed by my palm. I am about to do something It recites a reincarnation sutra, hoping that it can enter reincarnation soon."
There was a moment of silence in the back, and a chuckle suddenly came out, without further words.
Are you making fun of me?
Without thinking too much about it, I shook the copper bell in my hand, and the vermilion bird whistled in response, fluttered its wings, and flew straight into the sea of clouds.
Chaohuali has always been highly respected by immortals.Although it is not yet the time for the ceremony, there are already a lot of immortals here and there, even the Emperor Zhaolan is no exception.
Walking through the flower path, I murmured softly, "I don't know what to scatter these petals. If they fall on the ground and step on them, they will all be crushed into mud? What a waste of things."
The master has sharp ears and eyes, so he can hear clearly.He turned his head, smiled and nodded the corner of his mouth: "Here."
I touched the corner of my mouth in confusion, and looked in front of my eyes. It turned out to be a snow-white petal, and I don't know how long it stayed on my face.
Let’s just say that these morning flower gifts are boring, they are all weird things, and now they make me embarrassing in front of the master...
Really, really pissed me off!
Halfway through the walk, the master suddenly stopped.I was competing with that petal, but when I saw the situation was different, I raised my head in bewilderment.It turned out that it was Zhao Lan who was sitting on the high seat and waved to the master, motioning for him to come forward and take a seat.
As far as I know, Zhaolan is the master's father, but for some reason, we can't see each other often, and we can only see each other at the banquet ceremony.
I don't know what the two of them said in secret, Zhao Lan took the lead in compromising, put her hand on the armrest again, closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the seat, no longer pressing.
The move was expected.The master acts in a low-key manner, has no intention of power, and does not want to be involved in gossip about power struggles, so he never gets too close to Zhao Lan, lest he will be criticized.
Presumably the master must feel uncomfortable doing this.
I sighed lightly, but didn't say much, and sat down with the owner in the corner on the left.
Although it is hidden here, there are still good people who come here to chat with the vines.
I kept my eyes fixed on the rear, and I had no intention of looking at the faces of those immortals, nor did I want to eavesdrop on what they were talking about.
At this moment, my mind is all focused on the small and exquisite jade bowl placed in front of the master's desk, which contains my favorite snow silk soup, and is also topped with amber-colored Tanghua honey.
After sniffing, you can still smell the faint fragrance.
I watched eagerly, almost seeing a hole in the master's back.While politely greeting the visitor, he shook his head slightly at me.Of course I understood what he meant, he was asking me to be patient for a while longer.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
He taught me this phrase, I remember.
Fewer and fewer fairy families passed by on the flower path, and finally only the flower girls on both sides of the path were still waiting in place dutifully.
After waiting for a while, I glanced up and saw that there were no empty seats, presumably all the immortals who were supposed to be there had already arrived, but I didn't know why Zhaolan kept silent.
I was thinking about Xuesi soup, and I was burning with anxiety.But the host poured the tea unhurriedly, without raising his eyes, he said: "There is only one person left."
"Who is it?" I thought to myself, he is quite impressive, dare to teach all the immortals are waiting for him.
"You have seen it in Xuandan before."
I am worried.Over the years, except for the master and the cloud of the face of Hades.The rest of the insignificant people and things have never caused the slightest disturbance in my heart.Even if I've seen it, I probably won't have any impression of it.
Wait, could it be——
The door was pushed open suddenly, and a man walked in, wearing an azurite court dress, and decorated with thirteen flowing fire beads on his crown.He has a solemn expression, and his light gray eyes are cold, as if refined from black iron in a cold pool.
He straightened his posture, kept his eyes fixed, and stopped every step.
Halfway through the journey, the bead chain hanging towards the crown did not shake at all.
People who don't know see it, and may praise him as "dignified and courteous", but teach me to see it, forgive me, I can only sneer, and send him "pretentious".
This person's name is Zhaohua, and he is the eldest son of Emperor Zhaolan and the half-brother of the master.
He and I have a bad relationship.
Three months ago, Zhaohua came to our Xuandan as a guest.
The night before he came, I was fined by the master to copy books all night because I was lazy in my studies.On the second day, I was so tired that I couldn't lift my spirits to do anything.
In the afternoon, I lay my pillow on the book and wanted to take a nap in the courtyard.
Fortunately, he picked up the pen and drew a bastard on my face.But I didn't realize it, and when I woke up, I ran around Xuandan with this funny face, and I was ridiculed countless times behind my back.
The most hateful thing is that my master saw my unsightly appearance.The plague god was still fanning the flames in my master's ear, saying that I was glaring like a red-eyed bastard, and even wrote a poem for me on the spot.
I am a person who holds grudges the most. When others bully me and humiliate me, I have to keep a careful account in my heart so that I can repay it in the future.
If it weren't for the face of the master, I would never have turned this matter over so easily.
Unexpectedly, I let him go, but he refused to let me go.
During these three months in Xuandan, the God of Plague did not do business all day long, but always came to find fault with me, and even begged for me from the master, saying what...to be his attendant in Xuandan.
Pooh, he deserves it too?
To tell you the truth, the sight of his face turned my stomach.
When the plague passed in front of me, I couldn't help but rolled my eyes very reservedly.Only halfway through the turn, he seemed to have sensed something, suddenly stopped his steps, turned his head slightly, and the corner of his eyes fell on me.
The fragrant mist is faint, the west wind is curling up, rolling up three thousand pieces of ice cream, blowing down the sky and raining flowers, just a piece of it stops at the end of his eyes, it is better than red plums in the snow, it just melts the cold and serious attitude.
My heart stopped for a moment.
I have to admit that although Zhaohua has a bad temper, he has an excellent skin.Standing there, it can be described as jade bone cold soul.Coupled with the extremely light-colored eyes and his unsmiling appearance, he can indeed bluff many unsuspecting immortals.
—but he couldn't frighten me.
Although he caught me on the spot for rolling my eyes, but now that the immortal family is gathered here, he won't be able to quarrel with me on the spot, showing his true colors?
Just as I expected, Zhaohua was concerned about his appearance, slowly took off the petal at the end of the eye, played it back and forth with his fingertips, and then raised his eyes and smiled at me—a kind of smile that is not on the surface.
"Wait for me outside the hall later." It was sound transmission.
After speaking, loosen the two fingers, the petals fall off, and they are crushed into dust.
Zhaohua straightened his expression, returned to his previous cold and arrogant posture, and gradually walked towards the high seat.
Waiting for him outside the hall?I can't be bothered.Who knows if he came up with another trick to play tricks on me and embarrass me.
I just thought that these words came in one ear and out the other, and I lowered my head again, staring at the snow silk soup in a trance.The morning flower ceremony has been held on time, when will the master plan to open a small stove for me?
It was what I thought in my heart, but for some reason, I asked it out of my mouth.
The master sighed very lightly, as if compromising.
Turning his eyes softly like flowing water, he motioned for me to sit not far from him, then put two fingers together, and pushed the jade bowl in front of me: "Drink slowly, don't be like last time."
Xu thought of something interesting, he raised his eyes and smiled at me.The eyes are like emerald green, like blue waves at night, when the wind blows, there will be thousands of hectares of waves rising and falling.
I was fascinated by the master's smile, and I didn't realize the deep meaning of his words for a moment, but when I realized it, my face suddenly became hot and red.
Last time, I drank the Xuesi soup in my hands too quickly, and I felt nauseous. I pulled his sleeve and groaned for a long time.
Thinking about it now...it really hurts the image.
This time I have learned a lesson, and I am determined to be courteous, eat slowly, and never let the master see me laughing.
Seeing that I was pretending to be reserved, the master looked at it with interest for a while, then asked casually: "What did brother Cai just tell you?"
"He asked me to wait for him outside the hall later." I swallowed Xuesi, although I was puzzled why the master would know about this, but I told the truth and complained a few words, "He is the most evil-hearted, Eighty percent of them want to have fun with me again. I don't want to go."
Hearing this, the master seemed to be lost in thought, tapped his fingertips on the table, and did not go to watch the singing and dancing during the banquet, but lowered his eyes silently, his expression was hidden in the dark, and he could not see clearly.
Hearing this regular knocking sound, I felt inexplicably panicked: "Master, why...why didn't you speak suddenly?"
He paused with his fingertips, and said in a flat tone: "It's nothing." He waved his hand to summon the fairy servant who was waiting by the side, added several bowls of porridge soup, and placed them in front of me one by one.
After eating, I immediately put aside my doubts and praised him: "Master is so kind to me."
When the morning flower ceremony was over, there were already six empty bowls in front of me, stacked high and high to form a hill.I haven't felt satiated yet, and when I was about to reach out to the seventh bowl, I was stopped by the host.
He clasped the bowl with his pale fingertips, and with a slight force, the jade bowl was moved out of my reach, and his tone was rare and strong: "Zhu Luo, don't overeat."
I didn't dare to do anything wrong, and said unwillingly: "Yes."
After the morning flowers were over, the master was summoned by Zhaolan.I was afraid that the God of Plague was also there, so I hesitated in my steps, but when I got closer, Zhaohua, who was sitting on the high seat, was nowhere to be seen, maybe he had left the hall early.
I just breathed a sigh of relief.
Different from the gentleness and indifference of the master, Zhao Lan was uncharacteristically eager, no more majestic and solemn than before, and even asked about food, clothing, housing and transportation over and over again.
However, no matter what Zhaolan asked, the master just smiled slightly and said: "Everything is fine, father don't need to worry about it."
Such one-sided pleasantries will eventually end in silence.
The two were silent for a while, Zhao Lan sighed, patted the master's shoulder lightly, and said, "Father, I'm sorry."
The master didn't say "everything is fine" this time, but said with a smile, "Father, why did you say that? Mo'er is already extremely grateful for being able to stand in Linlang Tianque today, and dare not ask for more."
Zhao Lan was silent.
Bid farewell to Zhaolan, and leave the gate of the palace.
I turned around to look for the moon chariot, but was stopped by the master.He walked to another place, and the residual voice came to his ears: "Follow me."
In the past, when climbing up to Linlang Tianque, one would walk in a hurry, and the scenery during the process could be passed by at a glance.If you want me to have any impression of this place...it is probably the sea of clouds that lingers all year round.
Vast and vast, boundless and boundless.
The owner leaned on the building and watched, his fingertips flashed faintly, and with the vigor of hitting rocks and breaking waves, he shook the sea of clouds out of the twilight tide.
After a long silence, he asked softly, "How about Linlang Tianque?"
Without thinking, I said, "It's not as good as our Wushan's Xuandan."
"Is it really not as good as Xuan Dan?" The master pointed to the bright moon floating in the sea of clouds, and his voice became softer, as if he was tempting, "Look, the moon seen here is obviously rounder and brighter than Xuan Dan. Is not it?"
The night is long and the silver is far away, and the bright moon that can only be seen from a distance on weekdays seems to be within reach.It is indeed a beautiful scenery that Xuandan has never seen before.
but……
"But Xuandan has a master." This remark was offensive, and I knew it was inappropriate, so my voice became softer and softer, "Linlang Tianque does not."
He didn't know if he heard my words, so he closed his eyes and just covered it with a smile.
It's rare to see the master looking so defenseless, the black eyelashes are long and straight, casting a shadow under the eyes.
I breathed lightly, stuck out my fingertips like a ghost, trying to dare to commit another crime again.
If... If the master is still angry with me like last time, I will cut off the love with a sharp knife in the future, and never go beyond the thunder pool.
"Bamboo, Luo."
Seeing that I was about to succeed, someone behind me suddenly called my name.He paused every word, quite a bit like gnashing his teeth.
Being disturbed like this, the master opened his eyes instantly, and met my eyes.He was slightly startled, his eyes shifted to my dishonest hand, he frowned, hesitant to speak.
I cursed bad luck secretly, but I could only admit that I was unlucky.Twirling her fingertips lightly, she retracted her hand as if nothing had happened, and found an excuse to prevaricate: "There was a mosquito just now."
"Is that so?" The master didn't ask any further questions, and a just-right smile floated on his face, not too much, not too little, "I'm sorry for your trouble."
"No, you're welcome."
Seeing him smiling, I felt a little carried away, wishing I could wave my hand and conjure up millions of mosquitoes, and kill them all in front of him, to show off my prestige.
I was just having fun, when gusts of cold wind hit, I shivered unpreparedly, and seeing the master's expression change slightly, I immediately realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, before I could turn around, my collar was picked up by an external force, pulling me back.
Terrific.The prestige did not succeed, but it increased the morale of others.
Although this posture is not painful or itchy to me, and there is no need to break free, but my upper body is pressed against the chest of the visitor, and the posture is really intriguing.
Seeing the master's eyes getting colder, I felt anxious.After trying my best to break free, I turned my head angrily, glared at the back, and said sharply, "Zhaohua, let me go!"
He not only tried every means to tease me, but also insulted my reputation.It is useless even if the master pleads for him today, I must fight him to the death before I give up.
I swung my arms and beat me randomly, but because I was controlled by him, I was all avoided.Later, he was annoyed by me, so he tied me together with a gold rope.
"You, what are you going to do?" Seeing that I couldn't move, I felt a little scared, and my tone softened.
Zhaohua had been tossed enough by me just now, and a few of the flowing fire beads hanging from the crown were also scattered.
He stood in front of me with an extremely displeased look on his face, his light gray eyes were full of light, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "I told you to wait for me outside the hall, why are you so disobedient?"
I said bitterly, if he told me to go, I have to go?Who gave him a bad habit?I should really do justice for the heavens and discipline him for his ineffective mother.
But after all, I still have a bit of taboo, I dare not speak freely, I can only hold back some tears, and look at the master with tears in my eyes: "Master save me!"
In the farce just now, the master just stood aside coldly, extremely indifferent.Only after hearing my call for help, did he change his expression, reveal that invariable smile, and persuade softly: "Zhu Luo didn't mean to offend, please forgive him, brother."
The master really is still facing me.I couldn't help being flustered, I just wanted to break free from the gold rope, and a suckling swallow threw itself into the forest, and then I threw myself into his arms.
For some reason, the God of Plague looked even worse when he saw me flirting with my master, and said clearly: "What brother Yun said is very true." But he took a step forward calmly, just blocking the way between me and the master. between.
After that, no matter how much I looked around, I could only meet Zhaohua's unlucky face.
Seeing that the meeting with my master, Queqiao, was indefinitely, my face sank, and I asked him straightforwardly: "What are you going to do?"
Zhaohua didn't make a sound, put away the bundle of gold ropes, and raised his hand again.From the corner of my eye, I realized that he was holding a food box in his left hand, which was made of extremely exquisite and luxurious materials, and it was also carved with a relief of cranes.Jumping like a fluttering canopy, raising its wings like flying snow.
"what is this?"
"open to take a look."
Forgive the master here, he dare not make mistakes at will.I opened the food box, wisps of green smoke lingered out, and I waved it away, and there were actually two bowls of snow silk soup that I had been thinking about day and night.
But poisoned?Or what is smiling?I glanced suspiciously at the food box, then at Zhaohua, a little unsure of his intentions.
Zhaohuayu's face was dyed red, and his expression was slightly uncomfortable. He coughed lightly, and looked away: "Don't like it?"
Naturally I like it.But no matter how much I like something in his hands, it has become my dislike.
"Fake good intentions. Keep it for yourself." As soon as the words finished, I was afraid that he would grab the collar again, and hurriedly took three steps at a time, and hid behind the master.
With the blessing, I felt a little relieved, poked my head out, and made a face at him again.
For some reason today, Zhaohua was not angry when I provoked him like this.Mo Ran put away the food box, turned around, her eyes clearly fell on me, but she said to the master: "Brother Yun, since you are here, why don't you stay for a few more days."
Never.I was startled and clutched the master's sleeve tightly.
Last time, it was very difficult to send this plague god away from Xuan Dan.Without him, I ate well, slept soundly, and lived an unbelievably happy life.I haven't been free for a few days... I don't want to find my own bad luck every day.
The master declined quietly: "There are still important matters in the family, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time."
"Only three days." Zhao Hua paused, "Brother Yun, do you still remember? It's my birthday in three days."
"..."
According to my understanding of the master, once he remains silent, he is shaken.Thinking of the next three days that I might have to suffer again, I was dizzy for a while, and I was about to lose my footing.
"The queen mother also often said that you are alone, and you spend less time with us than you. Right now, taking advantage of my birthday, we just have a gathering, and she also has a lot of things to say to you."
The servant was indomitable, and what he said was wildly colorful.The owner's relatives have been shallow since childhood, so he may be moved by it.
But I don't believe it.
In my opinion, the owner is Zhaohua's half-brother, not the daughter of Empress Fuling.Since there is no kinship, how could she be so kind to arrange a family reunion?There must be some intention in it, so don't be careless.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say: "Master, think twice!"
"It's nothing." The master seemed to have made up his mind, and nodded slightly, "Miss Fu Ling's kind intentions, Yun Mo appreciates it. If that's the case, I will let my brother arrange everything."
