Zhu Feng immediately stood up when he heard the words, looked at Yi Long, the alchemist on the high platform, and quickly affirmed Hua Lixue's statement, "Young master, indeed, it is true that there is something wrong with Yi Long's alchemy... But why? Will it? With his cultivation base, this is impossible. Why did something go wrong in the last round of competition?"

Hualixue frowned when she saw the senior alchemist Huangfuzhi walking down the high platform where Yi Long was making alchemy with his hands behind his back.Could it be him?But how did he do it?However, regardless of whether it was his problem or not, this time the title of Great Zhou Pill King was impossible to obtain.This is definitely a major blow.Without the title of Dan King of the Great Zhou, Yi Long would not be able to enter the Pill Palace, and the Golden Knife Sect would not be able to become a top sect. After that... the righteous way of martial arts that wants to control the Great Zhou will become a dream. The plan was prepared for several years.But now, unexpectedly?Fall short!This is an unacceptable failure.She couldn't help but clenched her fists tightly, with raging anger burning in her eyes.

At this moment, she really wanted to get up immediately and leave with a flick of her sleeves.But doing so seems to make the opponent Biluo Palace laugh and proud.Thinking of this, she forced herself to calm down quickly, at least she couldn't see any expression on her face.Inadvertently glanced in the direction of the people in Biluo Palace, she saw a smile on Ye Liuguang's face as expected, and couldn't help feeling angry in her heart, but then she was relieved again.

Because even if Bi Luogong won, isn't Yi Long still in his hands?Presumably Ye Liuguang would also know that this man was his father. If so, wouldn't he be able to talk about it in the future?

Thinking of this, she felt better, so she went to see Jun Ruyue again.The strange thing is that Jun Ruyue is not by Ye Liuguang's side today.Aren't these two people always inseparable?How come Jun Ruyue is not here today?So what did she do?

While she was thinking about these things, Yuan Xiang had already refined the elixir on the high platform beside the alchemist Yuan Xiang of Biluo Palace.Put the pill in a special jade box and hold it high.Afterwards, five alchemists headed by the senior alchemist Huangfuzhi stepped up to the stage to carefully inspect the elixir he had refined, and finally agreed that Yuan Xiang refined the elixir of longevity with excellent quality.

At this time, it was time for the competition, and the five alchemists went to the alchemist Yi Long of the Golden Knife Gate, looked at the elixir he had refined, and agreed that he did not refine the longevity elixir, so he failed.

He took all the elixirs refined by Yuan Xiang and Yi Long, and presented them to the emperor, asking him to read them. Finally, the emperor announced that the final winner of the Great Zhou Alchemy Conference was Yuan Xiang, an alchemist from Biluo Palace. , he finally won the title of Great Zhou Pill King, and will enter the Pill Palace.Amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of people at the scene, Yuan Xiang walked up to the emperor and took from him the edict of being named Great Zhou King and a seal letter of Dan Gong Dan Wang.

After the ceremony, the emperor returned to the palace, Yuan Xiang officially entered the Dan Palace, and all the knights at the scene also dispersed.

After Hualixue and her party returned to the other courtyard of the Wangfu in the south of the city, she felt very unhappy.Call Zhu Feng and Yi Long to the front, and first ask Yi Long what went wrong in the process of alchemy.Yi Long told what happened at that time, saying that the flame in the cauldron fluttered for a while, because the temperature changed, so when the elixir was finally formed, small bubbles formed on the elixir, so the elixir was not refined.Finally, I begged the young master to forgive me.

"How do you ask me to forgive you? You ruined our important business!" Hua Lixue slapped the table heavily and said, "You have refined dozens of longevity pills, and it's unbelievable that such a mistake would happen. !"

Yi Long lowered his head and dared not speak, but trembled.

"Zhu Feng, tell me too. You are in charge of guarding and training Yi Long. Why did this happen in the end?"

Zhu Feng immediately bowed and said: "Young Master, please punish me. It's my subordinate's dereliction of duty. This subordinate didn't expect Yi Long to make such a mistake. It seems that it is due to insufficient training."

Hualixue rubbed her forehead, shook her head and gritted her teeth, "It can be said that the day of ZTE's teaching is nowhere in sight. But Biluo Palace has stepped up to a higher level, and the threat to my teaching will be even greater in the future."

"Young master, the subordinates sent out today heard something in the Nadan Palace, or they may be able to turn the tide." Zhu Feng said suddenly.

Hualixue raised her head and looked at him immediately when she heard that, "There is such a thing? Tell me, what is it?"

Zhu Feng first asked someone to take Yi Long down to watch over him, and then he said to Hua Lixue: "That's right, someone got news from an eunuch in the palace today, saying that the emperor of the Great Zhou has since After the ice dragon pendant was stolen, he ordered people to clean up the Treasure Pavilion again, and unexpectedly found a piece of red jade engraved with a phoenix in a corner..."

Hualixue was startled, looked at Zhu Feng and said, "Could it be the legendary Fire Phoenix Jade? This piece of jade is even more mysterious than the Ice Dragon Pendant. Since it appeared once in hundreds of years, it has never been seen again in these hundreds of years." news..."

Zhu Feng replied: "Regardless of whether it is the Fire Phoenix Jade or not, I feel that I should go and find out. As long as I can get this piece of jade, the leader's fire poison can be completely cured, and the legendary ancient treasure can be found. It is not easy to deal with these Central Plains Righteous Paths."

Hualixue thought about it, and felt that this really became a life-saving straw to turn the crisis around.If Yi Long successfully entered the Pill Palace, he would not be so eager to get this Kuaiyu.But now, even if you know it's an opponent's game, you still have to break through.It's just that how to break through this game has to be carefully considered.

"Think about it, you go down first, take care of Yi Long, and don't make any mistakes. Otherwise, I will punish you for not getting Qingling Pill for three months."

When Zhu Feng heard this, his heart immediately trembled.Immediately said: "This subordinate knows."

Qingling Dan is a kind of elixir used by the leader of the Demon Cult to control all the congregants. Every congregation has a Gu worm called "Qingling" in their bodies.This kind of Gu worm must be fed with a green Lingdan every month, otherwise, after midnight every night, this kind of worm will secrete a kind of venom in the body, which makes the person suffering from the Gu terribly painful, like thousands of ants in the body. General gnawing in the bone marrow.Very scary.Ordinary congregants will die of pain if they don't get Qingling Pill for more than a month.And the congregants with a higher level of martial arts can only last for three months at most.Even a demon protector like Zhu Feng would lose half his life in three months, so it is reasonable for him to be afraid after hearing this.

After Zhu Feng retreated, Hualixue sat for a while, and having an idea in her mind, she got up and went east to the courtyard where Dharma Protector Qingcang lived.After seeing Qingcang, she told him her idea, and Qingcang naturally said to obey.

At this moment in Jingbi Hall, Ye Liuguang and others are having a big banquet to celebrate that Yuan Xiang, the alchemist of Biluo Palace, won the title of Great Zhou Alchemy King and entered the Alchemy Palace.Alchemist Yuan Xiang said again and again: "I really didn't expect, I didn't expect that Yi Long from the Golden Knife Sect made a mistake at the last moment, allowing me to win the title of Alchemy King of the Great Zhou. From the beginning of the first round of competition, he Just stabilize me. I had no hope of winning the title of Great Zhou Alchemy King. This is really God's help!"

Ye Liuguang looked at Jun Ruyue, who was eating grilled chicken wings, and really wanted to say to Yuan Xiang: "Do you know, you said that God is my wife. To be honest, everything depends on her today." She, originally today's celebration party should be held for my wife."

But this may never be said.It can only exist as a secret.Otherwise, it would be a blow to Yuan Xiang's self-confidence.Besides, Hualixue and the others are still in the capital, this matter is far from over, so naturally they can't disclose it to anyone.

"So, Yuan Xiang, you have to work hard and push our Biluo Palace to a higher position."

"Young Palace Master, don't worry, I, Yuan Xiang, have all been trained by Biluo Palace. Naturally, I will devote myself to Biluo Palace."

"Okay, okay, it's good to have your words."

After the banquet, Ye Liuguang and Jun Ruyue sent Yuan Xiang out, and the two of them went back to the house to wash and lie down to rest.

"Lady, you are really brave and careful today. When I saw you walking up to my father, I was afraid that he would notice something and chop you to death."

"What? Your father is so irritable, why didn't you say it earlier? If you said it earlier, I won't go. I didn't expect my life to be in danger!"

"Hey, I didn't say it at the time, just because I was afraid of scaring you. That's over. The fate of our Central Plains martial arts righteousness is in your hands, so I'm afraid that your hands will shake."

"So, you made your father harmless to humans and animals, didn't you? Make my little white rabbit think he is another Xiaoxue?"

"Isn't there no way to do this? Fortunately, lady, you did it. You don't know that when I was sitting on the seat, I clenched my hands tightly, and that heart was raised to my throat, pounding like a drum. Jumping like crazy. I'm afraid something will happen."

Jun Ruyue turned around and fell into her arms, wrapped her arms around her waist, and said with a smile: "Don't tell me, when I didn't go up, I was still a little scared. But after I went up, I didn't feel scared anymore. I just thought about it. We must do it. As a result, we are really satisfied.”

"Well, thanks to the lady. Next, you don't have to take risks anymore, let's see how we deal with the gang of the Demon Cult. I will ask Chun Juan to accompany you to eat and drink in Jingbi Hall every day. If you want I will ask the kitchen to prepare whatever dishes you want, and you can cook whatever you like at any time."

"Sanggong, what are you going to do next?" Jun Ruyue asked curiously.

"You don't have to worry about it, just wait for the good news." Ye Liuguang smiled, and leaned into her ear and said, "Lady, in order to reward you, let my husband serve you tonight and guarantee your desire| | dead..."

Jun Ruyue pinched her face, "Come on, since you want to reward me, shouldn't you give me yourself as a gift, and let me do whatever I want."

"Miss, you can do whatever you want... I will satisfy you..." Ye Liuguang said in a low voice with a hoarse voice, and put one hand into Jun Ruyue's lapel, wandering around the graceful parts of her body...

-

"Hua Li! Here I come..." Yu Hongzhuang ran into the octagonal pavilion with her skirt in hand, panting and shouting excitedly.

Hualixue turned around and looked at her with a smile. Seeing that her clear round eyes were unusually shining, she took two steps forward and stretched out her hand.Yu Hongzhuang shyly put her hand into hers.

"Come, sit here." Hualixue took her hand and sat down on a stone bench beside her, and asked her, "Are you tired? Look at you running out of breath."

Yu Hongzhuang showed her face and grinned, "Fortunately, I haven't seen you for three days. So, thinking about seeing you today, I don't know how happy I am."

"Really?" Hualixue smiled, she did not let go of the hand holding Yu Hongzhuang, the warmth of the other's skin and the softness of the other's skin came from the palm of her hand, she liked it very much.

Seeing that she wasn't hugging Xiaoxue, he casually asked, "Where is Xiaoxue, has its foot healed?"

"Okay. I'm going to give it to Sister Yue'er in my arms today, and I promised to give Xiaoxue to her." Yu Hongzhuang said with a smile.

"Sister Yueer? Who is that?" Hualixue asked curiously.

Yu Hongzhuang smiled and replied: "It's the lady of the young palace master Ye Liuguang of Biluo Palace, Jun Ruyue."

"What? You have a good relationship with her?" Hualixue asked.

Yu Hongzhuang nodded, "Yes. My sister was good friends with Mr. Liuguang before. I met him through my sister. After he got married, he brought his wife to the capital. I met his wife, Sister Ruyue, through him. Then Once I took Xiaobai to Jingbitang to find brother Xiaoguang, and sister Yueer found Xiaobai. She liked Xiaobai very much, so I told her that there was another kitten that was exactly the same as Xiaobai, and she begged me to give it to him. She has one. I remembered that my sister had Xiaoxue, who came to the Emperor Ji Mausoleum after she passed away. She was lonely. So I planned to give Xiaoxue to Sister Yueer, and I came here to look for Xiaoxue, and finally met you."

"I see." Hualixue said with a faint smile.He thought to himself, since the princess has such a good relationship with Jun Ruyue, it seems that it is not difficult to catch her.

Seeing her faint smile, Yu Hongzhuang said again: "I know that your alchemist Yi Long lost in the Great Zhou Alchemy King Conference this time, so you must be in a bad mood, right?"

Hualixue said, "It's okay."

"Look at you talking so reluctantly. I know you must be unhappy. But I want to persuade you that you can't force this kind of thing. Isn't there another chance in the future? Although it may take longer."

"Let's not talk about this anymore, where do you want me to accompany you to play today?"

Hearing what she said, Yu Hongzhuang took a look at the sky outside the pavilion, and saw that the moon is a crescent moon, and the moonlight is not beautiful.Seeing her looking at the sky, Hualixue seemed to understand what she meant, so she said jokingly, "Princess, do you still want to go to Wolong Mountain to enjoy the moon?"

Pursing her lips, she murmured, Yu Hongzhuang lowered her head with flickering eyes.He thought that Hua Li had really become a worm in his stomach, and he knew what he was thinking.But there is no moon tonight, so why go to admire the moon? There is no excuse at all.

After a pause, she finally thought of an excuse, "Actually, I like to listen to you playing the flute."

Looking at the moon there that night, the scene between the two of them was filled with a certain kind of emotion, and the scene of almost kissing made her heart beat whenever she thought about it, but she liked it very much.She likes talking with the two of them so close there, she can even smell the fragrance of her hair and skin, which makes her intoxicated.Of course, I really like listening to her play the flute, the sound of the flute is as beautiful as listening to the sounds of nature.

In fact, Hualixue also likes to sit and talk casually with Yu Hongzhuang on the top of Wolong Mountain, and also likes to play the flute for her.She felt joy and sweetness filled her heart, looked at the moon and the vast starry sky above her head, and forgot many annoying mundane things, as well as the struggles in the rivers and lakes, and the people around her brought her a feeling of happiness that she had never experienced before.

"Then let's go there tonight, I'll play the flute for you." Hua Lixue stood up, took Yu Hongzhuang's hand and left.Yu Hongzhuang was naturally willing, so she followed her out of the pavilion and went outside the Emperor Ji Mausoleum.Still like that day, Hualixue flew out of the wall of the cemetery with her light kung fu behind her back, then flew to Wolong Mountain, and sat down on the flat boulder on the top of the mountain last time.

There is no moonlight tonight, but the sky is full of stars, the stars are brilliant, and it looks special.Yu Hongzhuang lay down, put her hands on her head and looked at the stars all over the sky, and asked with a smile: "Hua Li, do you know where the Morning Glory and Niece Star are in the sky?"

Hualixue looked up at the starry sky and saw a Milky Way spanning the dome, so she pointed and said, "Look, it should be on both sides of the Milky Way."

"Is it true that Morning Glory and Niece Xing only see each other once a year?" Yu Hongzhuang asked.

Hualixue shook her head, "I don't know about this either."

"Hua Li, the Great Zhou Pill King Conference is over, are you going back to Dunhuang soon? If you are leaving, it will be difficult for us to see each other, right?" Yu Hongzhuang said suddenly.

Hualixue was startled, she lowered her head and turned to look at Yu Hongzhuang, she saw that she was looking at the starry sky with starlight in her eyes, with a hint of sadness lingering, one couldn't help feeling suffocated.Hey, how should I answer her? Even if I stay in the capital, it won't be too long. After I settle the matter in the capital, I will naturally go back to the Wanmo City in Wanmo Mountain.That is my hometown, my own home, my own parents, my own friends and congregants.I don't belong here, and the princess in front of me doesn't belong to Wanmo Mountain either.So what if you like it, it's hard to get results.

Maybe he shouldn't like her, shouldn't miss her so much.But if he really wants to see her cruelly, and break off his concern for her, it seems that he can't do it himself.God knows, I haven't seen her for the past three days, and when I lie on the bed every night, I always have her appearance in my mind, always thinking about what she is doing now?When did you get so heartbroken?Looking back carefully, she seemed to have fallen in love with her the first time she saw her, and liked her purity and innocence.Then he knew so well that he shouldn't see her again, and wanted to see her again and again.I must have fallen into her gu, I have her direction, which is the direction my heart yearns for.

She is like the crystal dewdrops on a hibiscus flower in the morning light, refracting the rainbow-like sunlight, beautiful and pure, making people intoxicated.And I am a chrysalis in the soil under the flower, obsessed with that dewdrop, but I will never be able to pupate into a butterfly, never grow wings, and fly to her in the sun.She was nothing but a dream of herself, a chrysalis living in the dark.

Thinking of this, Hualixue felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.Taking a deep breath, she said, "Princess, let me play the flute for you."

Although Yu Hongzhuang stared at the starry sky, she kept her ears up to listen to her answer, hoping she would say: "No, I will stay in the capital for a long time. Or she will not leave after staying in the capital. "

But without these, he didn't directly say: "I can't stay in the capital for too long."

She meant to play the flute for herself.This actually meant that, as I thought, she would not be able to stay in the capital for long, and she was going back.But God knows how much I like her. Even though I know she is a woman, I still like being with her so much.If she is willing to stay, then I will find ways to be with her.If she wanted to leave, as long as she opened her mouth, she would also be willing to throw away her identity as a princess, and throw away her glory and wealth to be with her.But, maybe this is just her own wishful thinking, she doesn't have deep feelings for herself that she has to think about the future and the future.Even if that day is here, the two of them almost kissed each other, but what does this mean?Can't help it caused by shallow liking?Or is it true love?I really want to ask her.If she really wants to leave, at least let herself know how far she likes her, so that she won't regret it.

With a soft "hmm", Yu Hongzhuang glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw that she took out a silver flute and began to play it.It's also the same cheerful melody wandering in the wilderness as last time, but because there is no bright moon tonight, and there are only stars in the sky, these melodies sound far away, with a touch of sadness rippling in them.Listening to this, Yu Hongzhuang couldn't help but tears welled up in her eyes, and quietly slipped down the corners of her eyes...

As if to relieve the inexplicable sorrow of parting, Hualixue blew on it in one breath for more than half an hour, and when she stopped, she couldn't help closing her eyes, her nose was sore.Everything is silent, and the singing insects whimper.

Suddenly, someone hugged her from behind, without saying anything, there was a sobbing sound from behind.The man choked up with grief and shouted, "Hua Li..."

Don't look back, she knows who this person is.My heart couldn't help throbbing with pain.But then came a surprise.

"Hongzhuang...you..." Hualixue allowed Yu Hongzhuang behind her to embrace her, suppressing her emotional fluctuations and opening her mouth with difficulty.

The person behind whispered shyly and sadly: "Hua Li, tell me, do you like me?"

Hualixue didn't answer immediately, but instead asked, "Then, Hong Zhuang, tell me, do you like me? Which kind?"

Without any hesitation, Yu Hongzhuang said firmly: "I like it, I like it very much. Hua Li, I like you very much. Even if I know that you are a woman, I still like you. As for which kind of like it is, I think it should belong to men and women. kind……"

Facing the person she fell in love with for the first time and fell in love with, Yu Hongzhuang didn't care about her daughter's reservedness and shyness, and frankly expressed her feelings to the other party.

When Hualixue heard this, she felt sweetness and ecstasy at first, followed by deeper grief.

"Hongzhuang, I like you too, very much, as much as you..." Hualixue said earnestly.

But even so, so what?They love each other deeply, but it seems impossible to be together.And in fact, the princess does not know her true identity.If she knew her true identity, would she still like herself and be willing to be with herself?For a moment, she really wanted to tell her her true identity, but if this were the case, would it make her leave herself faster?
