The Prequel of Baolian Lantern Konghouyin

"It's hard for you, but you resisted and didn't help." Yang Jian turned his head and glanced at Cun Xin, his tone was flat, no sadness or joy could be seen on his face.

Cun Xin let go of Yang Jian's hand, and the scene in the Vientiane Shrine could no longer be seen at a glance. The cool night wind blew the iron horses on the cornices, and there was a crisp crashing sound in the dark night. "I know you won't stop Yu Sinian from seeking death." She sighed, "He followed Miss Lu wholeheartedly. We saved him once, but we can't save him a second time."

Yang Jian didn't speak.He raised his head slightly, looking at the streets of Luoyang, which were like a hell on earth.At this moment, no matter if they were traffickers or pawns of Guijie, they all fell under the iron hooves of the Anlushan rebels, tossing and crying, their lives like nothing.In such a chaotic world, who can escape, and who is whose salvation? "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, treat everything as a straw dog." Xiansheng Zhenjun said softly.

But Cun Xin didn't hear it clearly, her mind was still on Yu Sinian who was determined to die, and her tone was sad: "But even if we die, we may not be able to be together—even if Yu Sinian enters the underworld again, he will find him again." If you don't see Lu Shaoyin, who has lost his soul, he will still be able to avoid that bowl of Meng Po soup, and forget this heart-wrenching life."

Yang Jian smiled: "The lovesickness that enters the bones can't escape the reincarnation. Only the body dies and the soul dies and jumps out of the reincarnation, which is the most eternal destination."

Longnu knew that he would answer like this, but it was as if something pricked her heart, and suddenly there was a burning pain.She thought of the desperate nightmare before, and couldn't help but smiled sadly: "Even if we can't be together, I don't want you to die. Even if we are separated, even if I want to die, I want you to live well." She turned Looking at Yang Jian beside him, tears were already in his eyes: "To me, knowing that you are safe is more important than anything else."

Yang Jian heard her cry, and laughed a lot: "Okay, how did it come to you and me?" As he spoke, he turned his wrist and turned into a lantern, but it was Yu Sinian who used it to light up in the Daze. that one.The two small bronze figurines hanging from the lantern poles were shimmering with green phosphorescence at the moment, they looked like jade carvings, and they were very beautiful.Yang Jian picked up one of the portraits and looked at it, let go of it for a moment, and flicked it with his fingers, a blue light came from nowhere and went straight to the villain, pouring in from the door silently.The candlelight in the lantern flickered and burst into bright light with great excitement.

Guankou, Shizipo.

A courtyard with seven entrances rose up silently, and the vermilion lacquer gate was tightly closed all day long, no one came in or out.People outside the courtyard could only catch a glimpse of the majestic blue glass tube on the top of Waxie Mountain and the heavy five-stepped gilt Dougong inside, but no one knew who lived inside.In the chaotic memories of the neighbors, it seems that this is an ancestral courtyard of the dignitaries in the court, but who is the owner? Even the oldest mother-in-law in Guankou City can't tell Ziwumaoyou.Only Old Wu from the bricklayer shop in the west of the city picked his teeth and said with a smile on his face: "My grandfather helped them build that house! You haven't seen it, but there is a gold-plated gold-plated awning on each of the four corners of the roll sheds of the seven main rooms. The pagoda, my grandfather smoked twenty bags of cigarettes before he came up with a way to add four skylights on the roof, so that the pagoda can be put down!"

People suddenly realized that the Ming emperor Xishou brought many princes and nobles to Sichuan. Maybe some nobleman took a fancy to the tranquility of Guankou and spent a lot of money and money to build a courtyard here. Before they had time to live in, they reported that Old Master Guo had recovered the world, and a group of dignitaries rushed to Chang'an again, rushing to have fun in front of the newly ascended emperor, the heir emperor.Then some sour scholars sighed: "It's a pity that all these carved beams and painted buildings have been turned into fox hills and rabbit gardens, tsk tsk..."

The third princess of Xihai in the other courtyard couldn't hear the discussion outside the wall. She was going to get married again in the near future, and she was currently inspecting her married residence one by one alone. "That good uncle Yang Jian has changed his temperament, why is he so generous?" Cun Xin smiled, looking carefully at the pointed roof of the dormitory.Under the forehead and eaves decorated with flowing flame patterns and double uplifting lotus, there are several thick silver-gilt porch columns, and the bases of the columns are carved with broad-leaved sea pomegranate branches, which are lifelike.In the warm pavilion of the sleeping hall, there is a thousand-craft bed carved with treasure-shaped patterns, which is as white as jade. A vase is carved on each side of the bedpost, and there are several branches of Wangyoucao in the vase.On the beam of the couch, there are reliefs of fairy mountains on the sea, small rivers, flowing water on the mountains, people, and couples outside the door. Looking at the naughty boy flying a kite, his eyes are picturesque.On the algae well, a dragon with teeth and claws is holding a huge orb in its mouth. Cun Xin feels as if he has seen it somewhere before, but he can’t remember it for a while. He just stares quietly at its faint, warm orange glow, and the light and shadow flow Come down and cover every utensil inside.

Summer goes and autumn comes, the flowers are remnant and dew is cold, the moonlight passes through the layers of banana leaves outside the window, and falls on the red sandalwood water chestnut window pane, embracing a thin silver border on the hexagonal window.Yang Jian pushed the door in from the outside, still carrying the coolness of early autumn on his body. He saw Cun Xin lazily leaning on the side of the desk, resting his stomach in one hand and holding a silver hairpin in the other, as if he wanted to pick out the candle flames, but he was just stupid. Staring at the flame thoughtfully, Yang Jian didn't even notice when he came in.Xiansheng Zhenjun smiled, leaned over to take the hairpin from her hand, and lit the candle, Cun Xin came to his senses, stood up and smiled, "Is everything settled?"

"Yeah." Yang Jian put down the silver hairpin, got up from Cun Xin and undressed himself, then turned his head and said, "I sent the souls of the two of them to King Chuanlun, and I explained in detail, they dare not make mistakes, don't worry."

Cun Xin put his silver armor on the shelf, and took a set of clean middle clothes to serve Yang Jian to change: "You didn't save Shao Yin in the underworld, and Si Nian in the world, but why did you take their souls?" , arrange for them to be reincarnated together?"

Yang Jian changed his clothes, loosened his hair, turned his sore neck and said: "I don't save them because they have different fates. I am a god, and I can't change the way of heaven to them just because I sympathize with a certain mortal." arrange."

"There are different paths in this life, but can they return together in the next life?"

Yang Jian took a cup of tea from the table, passed it under his nose, and said in surprise: "Is this Mengding nectar?" Cun Xin shot him a look: "You are not at home, so I am not allowed to make some tea that I like?"

"Naturally." Yang Jian drank the tea all at once, and said with a smile, "I'll drink this too in the future." He poured another cup, but didn't rush to drink, and said slowly: "Thanks to Xue Ji's help, otherwise even if I , and can't rescue Lu's soul from the quagmire of Mohe Yanze, and put it in the lantern."

"I didn't expect that cat ghost to be so affectionate and righteous. In order to repay Shaoyin's kindness for saving the wild cat in the palace that day, he was willing to use his own body to take the shape of Shaoyin and walk the maze for her." Cun Xin took it. Yang Jian took a sip from the teacup in his hand, and asked, "You said, you checked Shaoyin's fate from the karma book?"

"Yes." Yang Jian nodded, "Her injustice in the previous life has been redeemed in the underworld. In this life, she will be reborn into a good family and have a good marriage. I just follow the trend. As for whether the two of them will meet in the next life, Lu Shi Who will get the flower in this life depends on Mr. Yu's own fortune."

Cun Xin turned off the tea stove, stood up and put away the empty pots and cups.She bit her lower lip lightly with her fine white teeth. After a moment of silence, she finally sighed and said, "I will never be able to look at life and death so calmly like you. When I saw someone in a pitiful situation, I couldn't help but stretch out my hand." go save."

With a smile, Yang Jian looked at the delicate silhouette of the dragon girl—he was the one rolling in the mud pit.He has blood on his hands, debts in his heart, and countless mechanical conspiracies hidden in his chest.Yang Jian asked himself that he had seen the most insidious human nature in the world, and no matter how cruel the way of heaven could move him, all of this made him cherish Cun Xin's innocence and compassion, and longed for her company like an addiction.

Longnu didn't turn around, but she could feel Yang Jian standing up, walking around the table and approaching her, and then gently took her into her arms. "You don't need to be like me." The man sniffed her hair and murmured, "The way you are now is the best."

The reddish candlelight casts Yang Jian's shadow over, jumping and dancing as the flames sway.On the blue brick floor, the figures of the two overlapped, and from a distance, it seemed that Cun Xin's arms were embracing him.Longnu thought this idea was ridiculous, and turned around to hug Yang Jian behind her.The hands that embraced her were so warm, as if they had never left for more than a thousand years.Cun Xin suddenly remembered the song that the nanny sang when she was a child to lull her to sleep:

"The clouds are scattered, the moon shines on people,

A happy reunion is the best at present.

In the clear and shallow pond, mandarin ducks play in the water.

Red clothes and emerald covers, and lotuses blooming on both sides,

Both are right, love and love.

No need to sigh, Zhuang Zhou turned into a butterfly.

If you don't hear it again, the harp string will break.

From now on, with the full moon in the sky, dreams will be boundless..."
