[Xu Run] Love Parting

09.

After that day, although Runyu didn't let Li'er completely go, she still had three sticks of incense every day, but she never saw the distraught appearance as before.

Life is more comfortable, without Xufeng deliberately teasing, Runyu often has a smile on his face.

As Runyu's health improved, they began to meditate together after dinner every day.

Although water and fire are incompatible, their souls have the same source, and the spiritual power derived from them also belongs to the same vein, and practicing together can get twice the result with half the effort.

After two months like this, the spiritual power of both of them has almost returned to about [-]% of their peak.

Then, it is the new year on earth.

In the past in the heavens, there were no festivals, and the birthday of the Emperor and Empress was considered the most important event of the year, but after all, it had nothing to do with me, and I had to think about birthday gifts, not to mention happiness, but more troubles.

But the world is different, Runyu walked in the market, seeing the joy on everyone's faces, couldn't help but feel happy too.

Today Xufeng bought a lot of ingredients for the first time, and Runyu was a little puzzled to see that his huge basket was full of piles.

"What do you buy so much for?"

"Everyone is going home to celebrate the New Year, and the market will be closed for the next few days, so buy more and save it." Xu Feng explained, "Besides, it's not just the two of us eating."

"Who else?"

Xu Feng paused, and said, "I want to invite Lord Liao Yuan over."

It was only then that Runyu remembered that there was still this person, who was quoted by Liao Yuanjun, he couldn't help thinking about the past again, and was a little lost in thought for a while.

Seeing this, Xu Feng hurriedly said: "I have made it clear to him about the two of us. I betrayed you. At that time, you put him in the mother-in-law prison. It was really helpless, and there was no real harm to him. He I don't mind it for a long time, Yu'er, and you don't have to worry about it."

Seeing that Runyu was still silent, Xu Feng paused for a moment and then said: "He helped me a lot a while ago, and his wife just passed away and he was alone, so I wanted to invite him to celebrate the New Year with him. But I haven't met him yet. Said, I just want to ask you first, if you don't want to, I won't say anything."

Only then did Runyu come to her senses: "It's nothing, let him come, it's just the two of us, and it's a little deserted. Besides, the New Year in the world is not always about reunion. Maybe you and him haven't been together for many years. ?”

Xu Feng nodded: "Well, before I went to Doumu Yuanjun, I secretly brought him out of the Prison, and then we were separated. You were not by my side at that time, I was very lonely, and I never went to I have looked for him. It was only a while ago that I contacted him again, and I found out that he has already married in the mortal world."

"Getting married in the mortal world? Isn't that..." Runyu couldn't help but think of the lifespan of mortals.

"Well, but the word love is like this. Falling in love is falling in love. There is no way, he should have thought clearly. Besides, his wife is dying. The last time I saw him, he looked peaceful. He must be with him for the rest of his life. , and have no regrets."

Runyu was a little bit embarrassed when he heard the words, he had always been soft-hearted, and he immediately had no objections.

The two walked two steps, Runyu suddenly stopped, and said, "Shall I also invite Yanyou and Kuang Lu to celebrate the New Year together?"

Xu Feng smiled: "It's up to you. If you want to invite, invite them together. Anyway, we are old acquaintances, and there are many people and it's lively."

Runyu smiled brightly: "Okay."

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve, and the two of them got up very early this day.

Xufeng helped Runyu comb her hair as usual, but in the end he quietly took out a hairpin from his sleeve and put it on for Runyu.

Runyu's eyes were sharp, and she quickly drew it down again.

I saw that the hairpin was shaped like a phoenix feather from Huandi, its whole body was colorless and translucent, but when it was turned over, it showed colorful lights. It looked like ice, but its tentacles were warm, neither gold, nor silver, nor jade, nor stone. I don't know what material it is.

"What is this?" Runyu asked curiously.

Xu Feng smiled and said, "It's my New Year's gift for you. Runyu's exclusive Huandi phoenix feather is the only one in the world. I've been carving it for a long time. Do you like it?"

After hearing the words, Runyu touched the hairpin again, and said with a slight smile, "I like it."

"Then Yu'er, give it a name."

Runyu closed her eyes to feel the thing in her hand, and the strong Xufeng breath lingered on it. Runyu released a trace of spiritual power to explore inside, and found that Xufeng's soul was sealed in the hairpin.

Runyu opened her eyes: "Let's call Suo Hun Qian."

Xu Feng pulled the corner of her lower lip: "You found out?"

Runyu shook her head straight: "Your own spiritual power has not yet recovered, but you still insist on separating one soul and one soul. In this way, your spiritual power will only recover more slowly. Why bother?"

"If not, how can I say it is unique?"

"You idiot!"

Runyu looked at Xufeng's eyes, they were all distressed and doted on, Xufeng couldn't help but smiled even more happily, embraced him and said, "I'm happy."

The two cuddled together for a while, and Runyu asked again: "What is this hairpin made of? I can't tell the material."

Xu Feng sighed softly, knowing that she couldn't escape, she dragged a stool over and sat down, saying, "Do you still remember Yanwei?"

Yanwei is an ancient mythical beast with a human head and a snake body. There are three heads in total. It breathes out fire from the left, and thunder and lightning from the right. I hurt my back and lay down for half a month.

So Runyu nodded: "Remember, it has something to do with him?"

"Well, this hairpin is made from the ice bamboo shoot he had in Panju."

"Ice bamboo shoots..." Runyu frowned, suddenly remembered something, and suddenly looked at Xufeng, "I remember that there is a record in ancient books that Yanwei guards the tears of Nuwa, could it be..."

"Well, this is it," Xu Feng nodded with a smile, "It can strengthen the body, strengthen the soul, and increase the spiritual power. I think you should need it."

Runyu's eyes gradually softened again, and he said after a long while: "So you said that you went away a while ago for this reason, why didn't you tell me?" He also specially called Yanyou to come over to accompany him, which almost made him think too much.

"Yeah, since it's a surprise, of course I can't let you notice it in advance." As he spoke, Xu Feng blinked slyly.

However, Runyu's eyes slowly turned red, and he put one hand on Xufeng's cheek, and said hoarsely, "You have been away for more than ten days, did you suffer serious injuries, so you don't want to come back and let me know?"

Xu Feng was surprised at his sharpness, and smiled wryly: "Fortunately, it's not serious, I thought of a way to lure him away first, and Lord Liao Yuan helped me."

It was only then that Runyu remembered that he said a few days ago that Lord Liao Yuan had helped him a lot, but he didn't care about it at the time, only now did he realize that it was for him...

Runyu pursed her lips and said, "Today, I must thank Mr. Liaoyuan."

"Shouldn't you thank me more?" Xu Feng grabbed his hand, pretending to be relaxed and asked: "Yu'er, what are you going to give me as a thank you gift?"

As soon as the voice fell, the courtyard door creaked, it must be someone coming.

Runyu withdrew her hand, and patted the back of his hand in turn: "We'll talk about it at night."

After finishing speaking, Runyu put the hairpin on without hesitation, got up and went out to meet the guests.

Xu Feng stared blankly at the blush on his ear, and her heart swayed for a long time.

The first one to come was Kuang Lu.

When Kuang Lufu saw Runyu, his eyes turned red, but he tried his best to hold back the tears.

After a long while, she shouted: "Your Majesty..."

Runyu's eyes were slightly red, but she smiled and said, "I am no longer the Emperor of Heaven, so you can call me Runyu just like Yanyou."

Kuang Lu shook her head vigorously, then said, "Your Highness."

Runyu smiled wryly, knowing that she couldn't break it off: "Come on, let's sit down and talk."

After talking, the two walked to the stone table and sat down. Runyu brought out a tea set and poured a cup for Kuang Lu first.

When Kuang Lu saw the tables and stools that were exactly the same as those in Xuanji Palace, she remembered to look around, and saw every flower and grass, all of which were similar to those in Xuanji Palace.

The only difference is that the big tree next to him is bare, but the sun shines down unhindered and warms the person.

"Yanyou should have told you everything about me, right?" Runyu saw that she had been watching her for almost a week, so she asked.

It's okay not to mention this, but Kuang Lu's eyes turned red again when it was mentioned, but he didn't know whether it was sad or angry: "Since His Highness has already been resurrected, why did you notify Yanyou but not Kuang Lu?"

"I..." Although Runyu had expected such a question, she couldn't help but feel a little headache at the moment.

At this time Xu Feng stepped out of the room, saw Kuang Lu and said, "Little girl, you are here!"

Kuang Lu was not as affectionate as he was, she immediately put away the tears in her eyes, frowned, stood up and looked directly at him coldly, her eyes seemed to have knives in her eyes, intending to poke Xu Feng riddled with holes.

Seeing her like this, Xu Feng raised her eyebrows and said with a little embarrassment: "Talk slowly, I'll go prepare breakfast."

Kuang Lu sat down again when Xu Feng disappeared in the kitchen.

Runyu sighed: "I just knew it would happen, so I didn't inform you."

"Your Highness!" Kuang Lu said anxiously, "Xu Feng treated you like that, why are you still with him?"

"Didn't Yanyou tell you what happened?"

"I said it, but I still think it's too cheap for him. He owes you too much!"

"Kuang Lu," Runyu's complexion sank slightly, "There is no one sentence between me and Xu Feng, and no one owes anyone, let alone allow others to comment."

Even when you were the Emperor of Heaven, Runyu seldom treated Kuang Lu so mercilessly, and Kuang Lu knew that this was touching his back.

Xu Feng is his Ni Lin.

But Kuang Lu was still a little unwilling: "Your Highness, are you really willing to nest in such a small place in the mortal world?"

"Is there anything wrong?" Runyu looked around like Kuang Lu did just now, "I don't think there is anything better."

Kuang Lu found that the frost on His Highness's face just now had been swept away, replaced by a peaceful smile.

Kuang Lu used to be very familiar with this expression, it was the look of His Highness when he first fell in love with Vulcan, but now it seems that there is more peace and less worry than then.

Runyu looked back and took a sip of tea: "So Kuang Lu, you don't have to worry about me. If I didn't know what kind of person Xu Feng is, I would never be with him again. Since you still want to call me Your Highness, I hope you can have the same respect for Xu Feng."

"Your Highness..." Kuang Lu looked at him aggrievedly.

Runyu laughed: "Don't worry, I won't suffer the same loss again, I assure you, what happened in the past will not happen again."

Kuang Lu reluctantly nodded.

Xu Feng was picking up the vegetables, but his ears were pricked up to listen to the movement in the courtyard. Hearing this, he showed a familiar proud smile.

After Runyu drank the sweet soup for breakfast, and talked with Kuang Lu for a long time, Yanyou and Lord Liaoyuan arrived late.

The two met by chance on the way and entered the door together.

You Yanyou, a chatterbox, started rambling as soon as they met, and Runyu naturally couldn't "thank you" Mr. Liaoyuan.

Although Kuang Lu had some complaints about Xu Feng, Mr. Liaoyuan was an honest man, and Kuang Lu had never had any ill feelings towards him. In addition, Xu Feng came out to greet him quickly, and the Mengzhai was full of joy and laughter for a while, which was very lively.

After the greeting was over, Xu Feng quickly went into the kitchen to continue working on the New Year's Eve dinner. After a while, Runyu also went in to help him, leaving Yanyou and the three sitting in the courtyard drinking tea and chatting.

Suddenly Lord Liaoyuan put down his teacup heavily: "I really didn't know that Your Highness and the Great Hall had such a relationship before! Otherwise, I wouldn't have..."

Seeing his regretful face, Yanyou and Kuang Lu looked at each other, and comforted: "Mr. Liaoyuan, it's not your fault. If they don't say it themselves, no one can guess."

"Oh, at that time, I still thought that the Great Hall was too cruel to His Highness, but later I realized that he has experienced so much..." Lord Liao Yuan shook his head, "The Queen of Heaven and the Emperor of Heaven are too much!"

"Mr. Liaoyuan, today is a happy day, and they have reconciled as before. Don't mention the past, it will only increase your sadness."

Lord Liaoyuan let out another long sigh, before he stopped.

It's just that this topic brought back many memories of Yanyou and Kuang Lu for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

In the end, the silence was broken by Lord Liaoyuan again: "Is the main hall really not planning to return to the heaven?"

Yanyou pondered for a long time before saying, "I can't tell."

Kuang Luben had a sad and angry face, and asked in confusion, "Why can't you tell?"

Yanyou drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, no matter how much Kuang Lu asked later, he remained silent with an inscrutable expression on his face.

The reason why he said this was not just talking nonsense, but just suddenly remembered a passage from Lian Chao.

The last time Runyu wanted to invite Lian Chao out of the mountain, he said at the time that he had to think of another way, which was to silently release the copy of Lian Chao's memorials on the governance of the world that he had seen back then, and handed it over to Yan You to bring Lian Chao. Ask him if he still remembers the ideals and the common people in the world.

It's a pity that Lian Chao has lost his mind, and although he is moved by Yanyou's move, he finally refuses.

But before Yanyou left, Lian Chao told him the following:

[You come to me, you are really giving up everything, and the person who can come up with this method to let you persuade me is the one who truly cares about the world.As long as the common people are in trouble, this person will not sit idly by.There is him in the Six Realms, so there is no need for me. 】

Yanyou told Runyu exactly what happened, except for this sentence.

He believed in Lian Chao's judgment.
