Magic Palace Fengyue series: After the flowers bloom, a hundred flowers will kill

"Ah..." Ximen Duohong suddenly clutched his chest and fell under a plum tree, staring at the front in a daze. When he wanted to take a closer look, the figure suddenly disappeared.

"Jingxiang...Jingxiang..."

Reading this heart-wrenching name, Ximen Duohong burst into tears: "Have you ever had a little affection for me...in the end...in the end? When you collected for me...the falling snow on the plum blossoms, your happiness And affection...could it be... all a pretense? Why didn't you... have the slightest hesitation when you made a move? Why, you..."

Ximen Duohong choked up and said to himself, he knew that no one would hear the pain in his heart, and it was because of this that he dared to cry here. As the master of the Demon Palace, tears and sadness cannot be visible.

Two days later, a pair of unexpected guests came to the Demon Palace, they were Sikong Lanyue and Su Dongli who had been delayed on the road for a long time.The two heard some rumors on the way, so they hurried over, and as soon as they entered the palace, the guards and servants of the magic palace informed the whole incident.

Seeing Ximen Duohong, he said a few words. Ximen Duohong wanted to drive them away, but seeing the two people in a hurry, he couldn't speak such inhuman words, so he asked them to arrange them in a quiet and beautiful courtyard. stay.

Once in the house, Su Dongli looked left and right to see if there was no one there, then closed the door, and solemnly said to Sikong Lanyue: "Sikong, this is not right."

Sikong Lanyue was taken aback, and said nervously, "What's wrong?"

Su Dongli came to sit next to Sikong Lanyue, frowned and said: "Nothing is right. Including our late arrival, including the layout of the whole thing, including Hua Jingxiang's actions, everything is extremely wrong."

Sikong Lanyue was stunned, he didn't expect his lover to accuse everything of wrongdoing, he hurriedly offered a cup of fragrant tea, but with a solemn expression, he said: "I would like to hear the details. "

"The ones who stopped us were the people from Baihualin. Why did the palace masters of several roads only block our way? And they just tricked us into a big maze to delay us, without using poison or tricks, you also said , This is not in line with their usual style, isn't it? But, just when we didn't arrive, this happened."

"What does that have to do with this whole thing?" Sikong Lanyue was puzzled, "Why do you want to stop us? We don't know any conspiracy plans."

Su Dongli sighed and said, "Listen to me slowly. According to what people say, this Hua Jingxiang's mind is not so powerful and meticulous. He was able to go undercover in the magic palace for five years without being discovered by anyone, and he won the prize. Everyone's unanimous love, Sikong, if you are, can you do this?"

Sikong Lanyue thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I can't. But Hua Jingxiang has a gentle personality, so it's not surprising that everyone loves her."

Su Dongli said: "Even so, being an undercover agent in the enemy's camp should be like walking on thin ice every day. In such a day, people's pressure is bound to increase, but if there is a chance to end it sooner, never There will be delays, but it is said that Hua Jingxiang and the palace lord have had sex three years ago. The theory is that he can absorb the palace lord's skill between the beds, and then leave calmly, why wait until three years Is it dangerous to do this later, and lead to a fall short of success?"

"Oh, maybe... his purpose is to gather us to kill together, not to absorb power?" When Su Dongli said it, Sikong Lanyue also felt that this was indeed a big doubt.

"But isn't he from Baihualin? People from Baihualin don't want to kill you, but they seem to want you to suffer. Absorbing your energy and making you useless, is there anything more painful than this? That's why those altar masters are planning all their efforts to gain your skills, but they just don't have a chance, so why should Hua Jingxiang act differently?"

"Uh, this..."

Sikong Lanyue couldn't tell.But I heard Su Dongli say again: "Besides, the doubts are far more than this. I am also good at medicine, and I know very well that this kind of person is very sensitive to various medicines and diseases. Since Huajingxiang is good at Using poison is undoubtedly the most effective and convenient way for him to protect himself and kill the enemy in the magic palace. Under such circumstances, how could he communicate with old doctor Gong so sincerely.

Especially when he inadvertently revealed a lot of drug cracking formulas. If he didn't mention this kind of thing, no one would know that he had it. Isn't this tantamount to planting a huge hidden danger for his future actions? "

Sikong Lanyue could only nod his head, and said to Su Dongli: "Yes, this is really puzzling, Dongli, if you have any doubts, you can tell them together, I'll listen."

"The other thing is his injury to Ximen Duohong." Su Dongli frowned: "Don't say he is a person who is proficient in medical skills, even an ordinary martial arts person would never mess with a place like the heart." wrong?

And he stabbed Ximen Duohong's heart with a knife, but he didn't stab his heart, instead he removed more than half of the poisonous serum, Sikong, don't you think this is a big joke in the world?Not to mention the relationship between Hua Jingxiang and Palace Master Ximen, they have been close for three years, not to mention the heart, even the moles on each other's body should be clear, right? . "

Sikong Lanyue took a breath of air, and murmured: "Scholarly Family" "You mean...you mean..." He muttered for a long while, but he still didn't say what was in his heart, because it was really It was cruel and unbelievable.

Su Dongli nodded and sighed: "Yes, what I mean is that this seemingly insidious situation should not be set up for Palace Master Ximen and the Demon Palace, but rather for himself. Same, but is there really someone in the world who can attack him so ruthlessly? He clearly knows what the consequences will be, and Palace Master Ximen will hate him for the rest of his life. How can he be willing to carry the regret of being deeply hated by his lover, so miserable? die?"

As soon as Su Dongli finished speaking, he suddenly heard Sikong Lanyue shouting, "Who?"

Then he flew up and kicked the door open, but the next moment he was stunned, and the person standing outside the door was Ximen Duohong with a ghostly complexion.

"Duo... Duohong, you... why are you here?" Sikong Lanyue stammered a bit, he didn't know how much Ximen Duohong had heard, this kind of blow was not something he could bear, just think about how he faced Dongli back then It can be understood when life and death are uncertain, what's more, Hua Jingxiang is dead, he is really dead.

"I heard it all, what I should hear... I heard it all..."

Ximen Duohong seemed to know what Sikong Lanyue was thinking, he smiled miserably, then stepped into the room, stared at Su Dongli, and said slowly: "As expected, you are worthy of being the most talented person in the world. I finally solved all the doubts that I couldn't understand or dare to think about on weekdays. I just hate, why didn't you come that day? Otherwise, maybe... maybe..."

Su Dongli sighed, shook his head and said: "Palace Master Ximen, it seems that we did not arrive that day, which was also one of the tricks set by the playboy. Although old doctor Gong knows the heart of a doctor, he is old after all. He also loves the palace lord like a father and son, under the hatred, how can he be willing to think for him?

All the palace lords are blinded by hatred, and it is difficult to think carefully about the doubts.But if I was there, I don't have a deep relationship with you, and I know the heart of a doctor, and a bystander is clear. After careful consideration, I may not be able to see the doubts in it.So he made people hold me and Sikong back, so that the plan could be carried out smoothly. "

When he said this, he sighed again, shook his head and said: "Although I have analyzed everything now, but under the circumstances at that time, I can't guarantee that I can sort out these thoughts and give rise to doubts, but Playboy is too much. Be careful, and exclude me as an undetermined factor. From this, we can see how thoughtful he is for this conspiracy. I think he must have his own intentions, but it is impossible for us to know exactly why."

"Okay, Dongli, let's not mention the things that have changed over time, not to mention that what you just said may not be all right."

Sikong Lanyue glanced at his lover, Su Dongli understood his intentions, lowered his head in silence, remembering that Hua Jingxiang's peerless demeanor had returned to dust, he felt sad in his heart.

Ximen Duohong's body shook violently, but he didn't say anything, turned around and walked back, Sikong Lanyue was afraid that something was wrong with him, so he hurriedly supported him, but he heard him smile bitterly: "Are you afraid that I will die? No I am the Lord of the Demon Palace, I still have the Hundred Flowers Grove, and I still have too many things to do, I am going to accompany him, I have to wait until these things are all done before I can go..."

While talking, the person has already pushed open the door, and staggered all the way, leaving two lines of footprints in different shades on the snow, whimpering and blowing by the north wind, making that sad figure extremely desolate.

"Palace Master Ximen... will he be fine?"

Su Dongli stood up worriedly, but seeing Sikong holding the moon and tiger's eyes with tears, he shook his head and said, "He looks more terrifying than I did back then. At least at that time, I could still shed tears, but now he... I...I really feel the creeps, no, I have to inform Jingtao Qianzhan and the others..." He walked out the door and hurried away.

Ximen Duohong was floating around, and he didn't know how he got back to the house, but he felt that the soul seemed to follow him, but it had already left the body.

After returning to the house and closing the door, the figure that had been holding on all the way suddenly couldn't support it, and slipped and fell to the ground.

"Jingxiang..." After only saying two words, I felt a sweetness in my throat, "Wow", a big mouthful of blood spewed out, it turned out that the heartache was like a twist, but it was already full of energy and blood.

Looking up and looking around in a daze, Hua Jingxiang is everywhere, either smiling gently, or reading a book quietly, or busy going in and out, or smiling narrowly after teasing herself.

Ximen Duohong showed a joyful expression on his face, stood up with great effort, and rushed towards the phantoms in front of him. After a few times, he fell to the ground.All the phantoms in the room also dissipated.

He stared blankly at the empty room, and suddenly burst into tears, choked up and said, "Jingxiang, you...you are here, aren't you? I know, this is the place where you... have been, where you and I have lived together You...even if you die, you will not be willing to leave. Jingxiang, you...you come out, I am not afraid of ghosts, you died miserable, let me give you a good grooming, You have always been a fairy-like figure, the one who loves cleanliness the most..."

He suddenly pulled his hair violently again, slapped himself hard, and cursed loudly: "I'm a bastard, I'm not human, I... I haven't even seen you for the last time, I... I don't even know you died!" What did you look like at that time, Jing Xiang, you must be resentful of me, so you refuse to come out, right? Jing Xiang, I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."

"Actually, that day, I really wanted to ask you that day, did you ever have any real affection for me? I'm so stupid, if I asked, you would be heartbroken, and your eyes would definitely reveal flaws Come on, why didn't I ask, why didn't I ask? Jingxiang, have you been waiting for me to ask you, you have been waiting, you have been waiting, until you close your eyes, you are still thinking about why I didn't Are you asking? If I ask, maybe we can be as happy as Sikong Baili and the others today, right?"

Su Dongli outside the door sighed dejectedly, he really couldn't listen to these heart-wrenching words anymore.Seeing that the guards were startled by the palace lord's voice, he waved his hands weakly, and said softly: "Let the palace lord Ximen be quiet for a while, watch him, don't let him get into trouble." After speaking, he walked away with three sighs.

Laughing and crying in the room, the crazy voice spread outside the house, and finally disappeared in the sound of the north wind like a ghost crying.

Baili Jingtao and the others turned back quickly, it didn't take ten days of effort, and this time, Nangong Jiangdu brought another person, that is Yan Fangqiong, the altar master of Baihua Forest.

All in all, this Yan Fangqiong is the only person in Baihualin who is not annoying besides Hua Jingxiang. She has no intention of going against the Demon Palace, so she does not cross the river with Nangong Jiangdu Well, and even sometimes There is still a little contact, and this time the person who went to hold Sikong Lanyue back is this Yan Fangqiong.

At first, everyone didn't understand why Nangong Jiangdu brought Yan Fangqiong here, but they soon understood.Because when Yan Fangqiong saw Ximen Duohong with empty eyes and an indifferent expression, the first thing she said was: "Su Dongli and Sikong Lanyue were asked by Jing Xiang to hold them back."

This sentence is more effective than a panacea. Seeing that Ximen Duohong was stunned for a moment, then stood up from the chair suddenly, leaned on the table and asked in a trembling voice: "You...why did you do this? Why is it so important? Shi Jingxiang? What kind of heart do you have?"

Yan Fangqiong's expression remained unchanged, and she said indifferently: "I didn't mean to kill Jing Xiang. In the Baihua Forest, he is my best friend. That's why I helped him. He is only asking for benevolence, so there is no need for Palace Master Ximen to be sad."

"Okay, Yan Fangqiong, don't talk about this anymore, do you think that Duohong can listen to your words now? You can just explain the cause and effect together, otherwise why should I bring you here? Let's drink?" Nangong Jiangdu waved his hand, signaling Yan Fangqiong to get to the point quickly.

"Before Jing Xiang came, he was already poisoned. Without the antidote from the palace lord, he would die sooner or later. He set up this situation painstakingly, just to make you, the palace lord, live a happier life in the future. You must Don't let him down." Yan Fangqiong sighed, as if she didn't know where to start, so she simply stated Hua Jingxiang's purpose first.

"I have Xingyue, Jingxiang knows that I have Xingyue." Ximen Duohong didn't believe Yan Fangqiong's words at all, thinking that the other party was just comforting him.

Yan Fangqiong sneered and said: "Palace Master Ximen, the functions of the stars and the moon are well known in the world, they can detoxify all poisons, life and death human flesh and bones, but there is one thing in this world that it can't do anything about. If not, Palace Master How can he feel at ease to send his most proud but most uncontrollable disciple to the Demon Palace?"

"What? Is there something that Xingyue can't restrain? I haven't seen you Baihualin use it?" It was Su Dongli who asked the question, and Xinglin Guoshou opened a pair of watery eyes, and couldn't believe it was true.

"We call it Ghost Gu, which means that if you get into your body by that thing, you will become a lonely ghost sooner or later. This is a Gu that the palace master spent his whole life to cultivate, and there is only one in the world, so it will It was used on Jingxiang, except for the palace master, no one can undo the poison of the ghost, let alone take it out." When Yan Fangqiong mentioned the ghost, she couldn't help but shudder , showing the depth of fear of this ghost.

No one has heard of this name, but since Yan Fangqiong said so, it must be something unique.Thinking about it again, yes, Hua Jingxiang clearly knew that Ximen Duohong had Xingyue, if he hadn't been poisoned by an intractable poison, he could have explained everything clearly, and then used Xingyue to save himself, and Ximen Duohong would stay and fly together again. Why set up such a tragic situation, and take Ximen Duohong's hatred for him to die?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Yan Fangqiong had time to rationalize her thoughts, and explained the cause and effect of this incident.

"Jingxiang is an orphan. When he was five years old, the owner of the forest saw him. Perhaps he had taken a fancy to his talent. The owner of the forest actually broke the palace rules and brought a boy back to the forest for the first time."

"Afterwards, Master Lin took great care to train him and taught him charming skills. None of our martial arts are superior, but Jingxiang is extremely smart. His martial arts are several times higher than ours, and he is good at using poison to detoxify. It can be said that he is completely Inherited the mantle of the forest owner, and has a great tendency to emerge from the blue."

"We all know that Master Lin is trying his best to cultivate the ghost Gu, but we don't know the method. We only know that the ghost Gu is very terrifying. Master Lin taught Jingxiang everything, but she never revealed a little bit about this thing. Son, maybe since then, she has decided to use this to control Jingxiang."

"We grew up day by day. The other sisters in the Baihua Forest were all brainwashed by the master of the forest, dreaming of getting something for nothing and absorbing the power of the master of the magic palace so as to dominate the martial arts. Only me and Jingxiang are not rare, so we two are very close, There are many things that cannot be said in front of people, we will tell each other behind our backs, if not, in that cage-like place, I am afraid that the two of us would have gone crazy long ago.”

"Jing Xiang has a wish, which is to disband Baihua Forest, so that everyone can live a normal life. The husband will teach the sons and daughters to farm and weave. Maybe those Baihua girls who have been poisoned too deeply will be killed, but at the very least, they will not be seen again in the future. With Baihualin, there will be no more tragedies of Baihua girl. Because of this wish, he tried his best, ruthlessly, and stepped on the corpses of countless people to climb to the position where one person is below one person and above ten thousand people."

"People in Baihualin are afraid of him, saying that he is the most selfish and cold-blooded beast in the world. But only I understand that if Jingxiang doesn't get rid of those people, those people will get rid of him. Baihualin is a hell in the first place. .”

"Perhaps because of this, he finally won the trust of Lord Lin. When he took the initiative to invite Ying to come to the Demon Palace, Lord Lin agreed. But the condition is that he must obey the only ghost Gu."

When Yan Fangqiong said this, everyone couldn't help being moved. Ximen Duohong tightly grasped his skirt, his voice was trembling almost out of tune, and he murmured: "Scholarly Family" He...he took it... ? He... this idiot, he actually obeyed that thing for this?"

Yan Fangqiong glanced at Ximen Duohong, sighed and said, "Destroying the Baihua Forest is Jingxiang's belief, and it is also his means of revenge on the forest owner who took him captive. He has always hated the forest owner for taking away His freedom has trained him to be a tool to deal with the Demon Palace. He is a majestic seven-foot man, but the most powerful thing is his charm. In fact, Jing Xiang does have his vicious and cold-blooded side, at least for the owner of the forest. He didn't think of showing mercy, but when he first came to the Demon Palace, he really came here with murderous intentions."

Ximen Duohong complained and nodded, thinking that as long as Hua Jingxiang doesn't fall in love with him, with his trust and love for him, he can retreat completely, return to the palace to obtain the antidote for ghosts, and sit on the position of Lin Lord. Then fulfill his wish and disband Baihualin.But just because he fell in love with him, he ended up with such a miserable ending. He died with hatred in such a biting cold north wind. When he died, there was not even a body collector by his side.

Thinking of this, he bent down unconsciously and in pain, coughed violently a few times, a wisp of blood oozed out, and was gently wiped away by him.

Yan Fangqiong glanced at him again, and still said in a calm tone: "Palace Master Ximen, Jing Xiang worked hard to come up with this plan. From the moment he fell in love with you, he began to devote himself to your life and happiness for the rest of his life." Plan. In the end, he exchanged his own life for your life and your hatred. He is seeking benevolence and benevolence, and he must have no resentment towards you before he died, only blessings to you, but is this how you repay him? With a sick body that is half dead and will die at any time, how can you fulfill his wish for him?"

Ximen Duohong was silent.

Yan Fangqiong said again: "Before Jingxiang was going to the devil's palace, he told me all night that he was determined to kill you. I said I was afraid he would fall in love with you, but he also said it was a joke. A heartless person."

"But later, I heard Palace Master Jiangdu narrate what happened. I knew that he had poisoned you with the Lianxin powder that he developed uniquely. But in the end, he must have tried his best to detoxify you. , the last dagger he stabbed at you was the last step of detoxification. I don’t know how his thoughts have slowly changed during the years by your side, but I know that he must have tried his best to love you, Otherwise...how could he endure such great pain and die."

"So, what you have to do now is to fulfill Jingxiang's last wish. You are his lover, and this is what you should do for him." Yan Fangqiong explained the matter almost, and finally made a conclusion.

"I will. Since it is Jingxiang's wish, I will definitely fulfill it for him."

Ximen Duohong slowly raised his head, looked around the crowd, and said word by word: "Don't worry, I will live well before the Baihua Forest is destroyed, and I will take good care of myself until I am killed." Get rid of that old woman who made Jing Xiang swallow the ghost gu."

Everyone nodded, but they were still worried. Ximen Duohong's intention was obvious. He wanted to fulfill Hua Jingxiang's last wish, kill the owner of Baihua Forest, and disband Baihua Forest. But what happens after all this is done?Will he still live well and take care of himself?

Everyone has such doubts, but no one dares to ask them.Ximen Duohong's nerves are extremely fragile now, and no one dares to stimulate him a little bit.

Except for Yan Fangqiong, those present are all people who have experienced unforgettable feelings. Thinking about myself, in the end, I finally got married with my lover, but Ximen Duohong has been separated from Huajingxiang forever, and it is still the same. It was he who killed the other party with his own hands, and he didn't even see him for the last time.

After a while, Ximen Duohong only ordered the housekeeper to host a banquet to entertain everyone, and he went back to the bedroom to sit alone, and took out the thin pair of ice silk gloves from the drawer, thinking of Hua Jingxiang when he made these gloves. , What kind of love should be, I just feel the pain.

Pressing that pair of gloves tightly against his chest, he seemed to be able to feel the gentle breath of the person again.

Ximen Duohong's eyes blurred quickly, and he murmured: "I was going to throw away these gloves, but for some reason, I opened the drawer many times, but I still couldn't bear it. Now I know, it turned out to be God The last bit of favor for me, anyway, it still left one of your things with me, just the incense, this thing is still there, but where are you? If you can watch me destroy the Baihua Forest for you, you should How good it is, how good it should be..."

The full moon was rising in the east, and there were no candles burning in the house, and the faint moonlight shone into the house.

Ximen Duohong suddenly remembered that night, and he didn't burn any wax himself, and then Hua Jingxiang walked in and lit candles for him one by one.For so many years, the wax in his house was lit by his lover every night.
