Chapter 18
Chapter No.16:
The surrounding area was quiet for a long time, I raised my sleeves to cover my face, smiled and said in a low voice, "I don't have a crow's mouth, why do crows keep flying into my mouth? I feel very uncomfortable because of the injustice."
After a while, Chenglan stepped out and said in a calm voice, "I'm going to take a look at Xiguang, you can do it yourself."
I hurriedly got up and called him, but before I could speak, Yuelao shook his head and interrupted, "You can't go to Xuan Temple. Chenglan, you can go and have a look, you can't hide this matter. He will know sooner or later."
Chenglan said: "I won't tell him. I won't." Then, he left without looking back.
I looked at Yuelao, Yuelao sat back, looked down at the fragments under my feet, and said calmly: "I was chatting with Chenglan that day, joking that if that ghost came up, Emperor Zuo might crush him with his palm. It seems that I am also a crow's mouth."
I heard the words and said lightly: "Well, maybe the matchmaker's mouth can't be said to be unlucky, just look at the two of us and you will know. Heh." After speaking, I lowered my waist to pick up the fragments of the teacup, regardless of whether this action was not good Got mesa.Fortunately, Yuelao didn't stop him, he just sat quietly.
The fragments were cold and hard, and they were all held in the palm of my hand. I straightened up and sat back on the seat. A new teacup had already been replaced in front of me. The scent of tea lingered around my nose and filled my sleeves. I was quite concentrated, so I smiled: "By the way, the widow is very interested in the matchmaking you just said. If you don't dislike the widow, please talk to the widow."
Yuelao hesitated and said: "I've thought about this matter again, and it's not suitable. It's okay if we left it in the past, but the situation is different today. In fact, it's okay to say it. There is a fairy under the Zhusheng empress seat, She has a strange temper, and doesn't like to find love with us immortals, so she insisted on helping me find a love partner who is not an immortal. This is really worrying me, and now it seems that this matter will definitely not work."
I opened my mouth when I heard the words, my mind was full of the shadows of Xiaobai and Heiyan, I couldn't help but clenched the fragments in my hand, and I knew the deep meaning of his words, so I said: "If this is true, then Yuan Zhi But what should I do? He has taken a fancy to my Palace Master."
He didn't look at me, but glanced at the door, and slowly said: "Xuan Si, if the red line between the ghost world and the heaven world is broken, it's not bad. We are our immortals, and you are your ghosts, that's fine. Good."
He must be very sad about Xiaobai.Perhaps for thousands of years, the old man has only been sad once. I can't see him like this, so I thought about it and said: "Xiaobai often told me about you in the ghost world, saying that you always loved him, and you hugged him all over the sky when you were young." wandering around, he likes to eat the fairy peaches you picked, it's so sweet..."
I yelled and said, he listened, his body remained motionless, his sitting posture was very upright, but his eyes kept looking out of the door.After talking for a long time, he turned his face away and smiled. The wrinkles on his face were extraordinarily kind and warm, "Your Highness is thinking about the old fairy."
I nodded hurriedly, and a figure stood at the door out of the corner of my eye, and when I looked directly, it was Chenglan.
"Why are you back?" Yuelao was surprised, got up and hurried to his side.I also hurriedly got up, looking at Chenglan's calm expression, I felt a little abnormal.
Chenglan ignored Yuelao, looked straight into my eyes, and said slowly: "The ghost king is waiting for you at Nantianmen, I will lead you there."
Although I was confused, I knew that the king should be in a hurry, so I said goodbye to Yuelao, and I wanted to go with Chenglan, but I was caught by Yuelao, "Xuan Si, the old fairy has the cheek to make a request. Don’t worry about what’s going on.”
I was stunned, then thought of the reason, paused for a while, and then said seriously: "The widow has promised you. In addition, you should also rest assured that the other widows will not mess around. Immortals and ghosts are different after all."
After leaving the Marriage Pavilion, Chenglan and I stepped on an auspicious cloud and floated towards the gate of hell. Naturally, the atmosphere couldn't be compared with when we came here, it was a bit dull, and we had nothing to say along the way.
When I arrived at Nantianmen, I saw the king at a glance, but the person standing next to him was the one who was standing next to him. After taking a closer look, I suddenly found out that it was the figure I saw in front of the Jichen Hall. I couldn't help being stunned and asked Chenglan, "My family Who is next to the king?"
Chenglan looked at me and said solemnly: "That is, the Emperor of Heaven." After saying that, he removed the cloud and walked slowly towards the immortals.
I was slightly dazed, stood for a while, hurriedly walked to Qingluo, and said in a low voice, "I chatted with Yuelao for a while, are you tired of waiting?"
Qing Luo's face was fine, but she shook her head and didn't speak.Knowing that he was in a bad mood, I decided not to offend him, and decided to remain silent, looking at the King and the Emperor of Heaven.
The Emperor of Heaven had no expression on his face, looking very dignified and solemn. He and the king were talking slowly.The king is still the same as when he came, with an indifferent and gorgeous face that no one can match, with a small and exquisite snow falcon lying on his shoulder, wait, snow falcon?it came back?
When I was lowering my head to guess what Xue Falcon was doing, Qing Luo suddenly touched me.I looked up and saw Chenglan walking towards me, I rushed to meet him, raised my sleeves and said, "We're leaving today, I don't know when we'll see each other again. Xianjun, take care of everything."
He stood in front of me, his plain white fairy robe fluttering.After a while, he raised his eyebrows, seemed to be smiling, and said lightly: "The same goes for Xuan Temple."
I looked at him like this, and thought to myself, if he called Junshang again, what would be the difference from Chun Yi 300 years ago?Thinking of this, a rampant urge suddenly filled my heart, and I couldn't help blurting out, "Mr. Shen, it's the widow, right..."
At this point, I stopped suddenly, and I came back to my senses, horrified in my heart, and secretly cursed myself for being reckless.Cheng Lan was stunned, her eyes filled with confusion, and asked me: "You just now..."
I stopped his next question, clenched the fragments in my hand, and said with a hasty smile: "It's the widow who wants to eat fairy peaches. Where's the basketful of fairy peaches that we promised, Chenglan?"
He was stunned again, maybe he had never seen such a thick-skinned ghost like me, and after a moment of embarrassment, Fang Man said apologetically, "It's me who was confused and forgot this moment. Just wait, I'm so embarrassed." Just go pick it up."
I smiled and nodded, "Very good. Then Chenglan will be in trouble." Watching him step on the cloud, we turned around and asked Qing Luo behind us, "When shall we leave?"
After saying this, the king over there waved to us, indicating that we can go.
I couldn't help but make a bitter face, it seemed that the fairy peach was really too much to eat, so I walked to the king's side with Qing Luo, and then went out of the Nantian Gate together, riding the clouds to the ghost world.
Looking back at the Nantianmen, which was getting further and further away, I asked the king: "How will I explain to Su Liu when I go back?"
Su Liu will be very distressed if things go wrong and he fails to bring back the good black inkstone.
Qing Luo didn't speak, and stepped on a cloud by herself for a while, at the same time Xue Falcon jumped onto his shoulder, and walked away from me and the king together with him.
Looking at their actions, I couldn't help but widen my eyes, pondering over and over again, and asked the king: "Qing Luo is guilty?"
The king was silent, and after a while, he shook his head and replied, "He thinks you are annoying."
Now it was my turn to be silent.
After driving in silence for a while, I heard the king ask, "Do you know that true king?"
Turning my head to meet his scorching gaze, I raised my fist to cover my lips and coughed, and said, "Well, he went through a lot of calamities hundreds of years ago and was the prime minister of Nanli."
Jiang wanted to say a few more words, but the fist resting on his lips was suddenly pulled up by him, the action was simple and rough.I couldn't stop it, and when I came back to my senses, I saw him staring at the fragments in my palm, with a dark expression.My heart skipped a beat, and I hurriedly explained: "The widow was drinking tea with Yuelao, and accidentally broke the teacup."
"Then you picked it up and held it in your palm until now?" He looked at me coldly.I am dumbfounded, this is a fact and cannot be refuted.After a long stalemate, he let go of my hand suddenly, and said calmly, "Throw it away. Did you hear it from Yuelao?"
I nodded, and threw out the fragments in my palm according to his intention.They fell rapidly in the clear sky, and the cold light disappeared from my eyes in an instant, and I heard the voice of the king again, "This king is wrong."
I knew he was talking about Xiaobai, so I couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Your Majesty has done a good job. Just now I took a few more glances at the Emperor of Heaven, who is very majestic, so I felt that he is so arrogant." He should be serious and upright, not allowing any flaws in his son. It is normal for Xiguang to fall in love with Hei Yan behind his back, and it is normal for him to be angry, no matter how carefully we plan, it will not be able to withstand his momentary anger."
The king was silent, sighed, and said: "Even though this king knew that he was flustered, he never expected that he would break Hei Yan's soul in front of Xiguang. There was a turning point in the matter, so why should he do it?" Is it so desperate?"
At that moment, I really wanted to grab his sleeve and say, Your Majesty, the wind was too strong, and the widow didn't hear clearly.Unfortunately, things backfired, I was too close to him, and those words penetrated into my ears without missing a word, as clear as his grandma's!
"Dough?" Xu Shi didn't respond for a long time, the king approached me and shouted with a calm face.
"Huh? I'm here." I replied.
"You... Are you sad?"
"...Your Majesty, the widow has been dead for hundreds of years, and this is the first time I feel uncomfortable in my heart, what should I do?"
After a long time, I heard the king's answer: "...it will be sad, but it's not bad."
As soon as I arrived at the gate of hell, I saw Qing Luo, his sleeve was tightly held by Su Liu.The two of them chattered and chattered in front of so many ghost heads, which was very unseemly.
Qingluo saw me and the king at a glance, and hurriedly shouted, Suliu immediately shifted his position, and quickly rushed to the king, with an eager expression on his face, without his usual flirtatious attitude, "Your Majesty, you are back. Dahei?" ? What about him?"
The king caressed the snow falcon that jumped and landed on his shoulder, and remained silent.Qing Luo and I looked at each other, there was wind under his feet, and he disappeared with a sharp sound.I was one step behind him, so I was blocked by Suliu, and he said seriously: "Xuan Si, tell me!"
I was embarrassed, and I didn't want to forcefully break through his obstruction, so I turned my eyes to the king.The king glanced at me, and the old god said: "Dough, I remember that Suliu said that you are not allowed to talk to him for 100 years. Could it be that the king made a mistake?" Our eyes lit up, we nodded heavily, and crossed Su Liu said: "Your Majesty has a good memory, you forget me even if you don't mention the widow, there is such a thing."
Suliu gritted her teeth and smiled, took out the Xuebai Lun fan at her waist and shook it twice, said: "Okay, very good. Don't say yes. You two! Don't talk to this hall for the next 500 years!" , hurried away.
The king and I looked at each other, I touched my nose, and asked him, "Where is he going?"
When the king heard the words, a little pity appeared on his face, he hesitated and said: "Perhaps I went to find Qingluo."
Upon hearing this, I bowed my head and mourned for Qing Luo for two seconds.
Unfortunately, when he looked up, there was a flower in front of him, and his body was hugged tightly.
"Ancestor, ancestor, ancestor, you are back." Xuan Ye was quite enthusiastic, rubbing his black head against my chest, we both stared wide open, feeling a little worried.
"Xuan Ye, my ancestor told you not to do this again. In the eyes of my ancestors, this kind of action is like eating tofu. You should hug Gu Fan." I opened his head and stroked his hair, my heart Said that although you are becoming more and more lively and energetic, it is a good thing, but isn't it a bit too lively?
When Xuan Ye heard this, she hurriedly withdrew from my embrace, and apologized to me with her black and white eyes open, "If you say that, I didn't intend to belittle my ancestors."

Little Theater Thirteen:
Qing Luo and Su Liu stood on the Naihe Bridge watching the scenery, the atmosphere was very beautiful.
The King and Dough stood under the bridge to watch them both.
Dough: Take a closer look, Qing Luo probably has a deep affection for Su Liu, so it's better to let them be together.
Your Majesty: You are not Qing Luo, how do you know his deep love?What's more, whether we can be together or not is not up to us.
The Snow Falcon on the side saw Qingluo pull Suliu's hand and made a gesture to kiss him, it was very excited and said: At this moment, the collapse of the bridge is a miracle.
Dough is worried: Are you sure Qing Luo won't pluck its fur?
The king is silent: ...
