Emperor Phoenix

Chapter 202

Then seeing the boy, he waded into the water step by step.

She was taken aback.

But she didn't think about saving her—she always felt that living is the simplest and most difficult thing, but it is something that a person must do. If a person doesn't even have the courage to live, there is nothing to stop him Necessary, those who abandon themselves easily, don't blame yourself for being abandoned by this world.

With her sleeves covered, she watched the boy walk towards the center of the lake step by step with a thoroughness and indifference that ordinary girls would not have.

That figure, never looking back, seemed to have no nostalgia for the world, but when it was about to approach the center of the lake, it suddenly made a gesture of catching the reeds.

In the azure lake water, the autumn sun coated the lake water with golden light. In the golden light, the young man's wet black hair was draped over his thin shoulders. He raised his head, and the outstretched palm was crystal clear like jade. The reed flower fluttered at his fingertips, like Dance of the Goddesses.

The girl's heart suddenly moved.

... That year, the young girl rested halfway and drank cold water on the bank of the river. The reed flowers floated into the water, making it inconvenient to drink. She frowned, and the elder brother stood behind her, and said lightly: "In the middle of the river There are no reeds in the water, the water there is clean, you go and drink it.”

Looking back blankly, she asked, "Why don't you fetch it for me? I'll drown."

"Disciple Qianjue, be responsible for yourself all your life, and you can't rely on others." The elder brother said calmly, "If you are the one who is sent down the mountain in the future, then your life will be full of hardships and turmoil, and you are destined to be the leader of others." Or, there are bound to be endless sufferings that you have to face and solve by yourself, so from now on, you must learn to fight for yourself.”

He flicked his sleeves, pushed her into the water, and shouted: "Go get water!"

She staggered and poured a lot of cold water. The icy lake was almost submerged. She couldn't swim, and she immediately felt suffocated, her chest was so painful, and when her eyes were about to sink, she desperately thought about other people's swimming postures. , desperately waving her hands and feet, and then, after struggling for an unknown amount of time, her eyes lit up, the light came back, and cool air poured into her nostrils, and she was already safely in the middle of the water.

Faintly heard the eternal and unchanging calm voice of the big brother on the shore, "Thousands of disciples, it is their duty to defend the world, and it is their duty to defend the glory and inheritance of our sect. Anyone who enters the gate must be a genius who is unique in a million, and he will surely win Passed through ten tests——Congratulations, Junior Sister, you have passed the first test."

She was floating in the lake, and at that moment, she suddenly felt a sense of relief, thinking, this is the first test, and this is only the first test. If she fails to pass this test, then just now, will she die silently in the lake?
Will.

The little girl stood in the lake, she didn't know whether it was cold in the lake or her heart was colder, she was trembling all the time, the autumn sun cast her shadow on the water, a small solitary part, she thought emptily in her heart—— Why am I alone?What about people?What about those who love me?What about those warm embraces that don't let me drown in the lake?

Who will give me to the world, and who will give the world to me?

... Many, many years later, the girl who has passed the ten tests of life and death finally became the savior of that generation, the girl who at this very moment watched a life go to extinction with arms folded and cold eyes.

However, at this moment, looking at the boy who was walking towards the center of the lake step by step, he seemed to see the girl who struggled step by step towards the center of the lake back then, saw the back of him stopping in the center of the lake to pick up the reed flowers, seemed to see the silent and dazed figure floating in the center of the lake back then. girls.

She saw her struggle, and she burst into tears when she was about to sink. When she saw her surface, she didn't have the joy of life, but could only foresee the desolation of the heavy burden from now on.

Suddenly, she wanted to save her.

The child who struggled in the lake and accepted the fate he had to accept.

She flew up, the snowy light flashed in the air, and her posture was graceful, like a proud goose that refused to give in to fate but was loyal to her oath.

In the next moment, her hand had already picked up the boy's arm.

Strangely, the man didn't struggle, he just, looked back.

She floated towards her like a beautiful white bird skimming over the blue water, and as if he looked back, his cold eyes reflected the water and mountains and her light and elegant figure.

The moment their eyes met, both of them were slightly shocked by the coldness and coolness in each other's eyes.

Crystal-like water waves splashed, and the foreign deep blue sea water reflected in the boy's eyes for many years was replaced by the autumn water with reed flowers floating by the side of an unnamed lake.

It was a long time later that she heard him say: Actually, I didn't intend to seek death that day.

She was stunned, and looked into his eyes stupidly.

He faintly floated a smile that he didn't know whether it was joy or desolation.

That was the first time Chu Feihuan and Qin Changge met.

The fire is swaying, blazing bright red, the autumn water of that year rushes in the swaying fire, those things and people who passed by, lost in the long years, but engraved in the eyes of the man who looks back for a moment, his eyes will always be from now on That pool of still water will never dry up and be clean forever.

Turning around, Qin Changge saw Chu Feihuan, who had just woken up, looking at her and Xiao Jue quietly with complicated eyes on the side of the fire.

There is no resentment, doubt, blame, or self-pity, but worry, care, tolerance, and waiting.

He looked at Qin Changge.

For some reason, he had a dream just now, dreaming of the reeds by the nameless lake, the deep and cool water of the lake, and the girl who came over the water like a white bird on that refreshing autumn day, dreaming that when she heard those words, A stunned but bright smile.

Everything in the dream is vaguely the same as before, but at the end, it is slightly different.

In the dream, at the end, he told her what he hadn't said back then.

"I also want to know, what would it feel like to be submerged in the cold lake water? Would it be the same feeling as when the concubine died in my arms?"

Back then, he didn't say this sentence, and when he couldn't bear to say that sentence, the cute smile that would make her happy and slightly embarrassed disappeared instantly.

Now, in his dream, he said it.

Do you feel deep down in your heart that if you don't say some things, you will never have a chance?
Chu Fei welcomed Qin Changge's eyes, and smiled at her as deep and cool as the moonlight behind the clouds.

Let her see her smile more... When she thinks about it in the future, she will have more beautiful memories.

Qin Changge took a breath and smiled at him.

She knew what he was thinking.

Extremely weak body and spirit will make people fall into a gloomy black hole, the long night is vast, and the light of the way forward cannot be seen.

Qin Changge doesn't want to comfort, comfort is the most meaningless and empty behavior, she only does useful things, and she will never give up her due efforts.

Then, let him look at his smile more, Qin Changge hopes that his smile will be as bright as spring light and as blazing as fireworks, so as to drive away all the haze and sadness that lurk in his life.

She was even thinking, after returning to Beijing, should she look for that evildoer and imitate his flamboyant and fiery smile?How I wish my not-so-warm self could have something that exudes heat to warm Feihuan, who is as cold as snow...

Xiao Jue stood up suddenly and strode away.

Not jealousy, not anger, he just suddenly felt that he should go away.

The smiles of the two people looking at each other are obviously bright and beautiful, without any shadow, one is more calm than the other, but for some reason, his heartache also overflows.

He couldn't continue to laugh enthusiastically, and blocked his gaze as if nothing had happened.

Selfishly, he never wanted to leave Changge for a moment. He vowed to get Changge. In Changge's two lifetimes, he always thought that no matter what position the "rival in love" occupies in her heart, no matter what the "rival in love" is No matter how good he is to win her favor, he must use all his efforts to win her back completely.

However, seeing Chu Feihuan's smile, he suddenly had the idea of ​​giving in, at least for this moment, he didn't want to disturb his gaze on her.

Changge is not an item, he has no right to give it up, he will still work hard to get it, this is what he thinks, the greatest respect and love he can give her.

But now, in the faintly sad atmosphere, if I, who had experienced the intermittent pulse of that person, insisted on staying there, I would feel despicable and cruel.

If he couldn't get Taxiang Jialan again, Chu Feihuan's time might really be running out.

Xiao Juefei got on the tree, staring at the direction of Nanmin Zhongdu from afar... The moonlight was hazy, and the way ahead could not be seen. In the faint atmosphere of mountains and forests, his straight back was like a resolute sword.

... We must get Taxiang Jialan, save him, and win back more time. Everyone has no scruples, no sorrow, happy, vigorous, love!

"Nanmin is full of deep mountains, full of monsters. Only Yilan has a passage. If you want to enter the Xuandi Palace in the central capital of Nanmin as soon as possible, the Shui family can't get around it. Since you can't get around, let's go head-on." Qin Chang Song flicking fingers, like talking about the weather, an understatement of advice.

Xiao Jue immediately agreed, "Okay, very good, I entrust him with my sword, and I have to take it back."

Glancing at the emperor who wanted to save face, Qin Changge was too lazy to dismantle him, Qi Fan said: "The Shui family is powerful, and now it is in the closed valley period, and the surrounding area is blocked. We are short of manpower, how can we get in?"

"Didn't you mobilize all the subordinates of the Huangmeng that can be used on the border of Nanmin and Xiliang in Central Sichuan?" Qin Changge glanced at Qi Fan, "Don't tell me those people are not human."

Qi Fan was in cold sweat, thinking that this woman was getting more and more terrifying, how did he know that he was mobilizing his subordinates?Rong Xiaotian frowned and said, "However, it's still not enough compared to the Shui family. What's more, the location of Yilan Valley is mysterious. I'm afraid we are still looking for the door. The other party has already set up traps for us to hit."

Chu Feihuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said softly, "The news of the old Valley Master's death."

He was exhausted and only said half a sentence, but both Qin Changge and Xiao Jue's eyes lit up, Qin Changge smiled and said, "Let's think about going together."

"Mobilize all the people, and first spread the news of the death of the old owner of the Shui family," Qin Changge smiled softly, "Don't reveal a word about the battle for the position of the Shui family, just say that the old owner is dead, look, go up The good family, the respected Shui family head, passed away. Those who have been favored by the Shui family, who want to show goodwill to the Shui family, want to build relationships, ask for help, etc., should come to condolences ?”
