My enemy's style is wrong
Chapter 38
There is an invisible barrier in the lake, something like a formation, which separates the underwater from the outside world.
Yin Chengyu had some bad premonitions, feeling that there would be something at the bottom of the lake, his eyebrows were tightly knit together, he stretched out his hand and nodded his head, signaling Lin Xiuran to float up again.
A very strong uneasiness welled up in his heart, and as soon as he surfaced, he couldn't help but persuade Lin Xiuran: "This situation is too weird, Xiuran, why don't you go down?"
This surprised Lin Xiuran, he thought that Yin Chengyu had always been courageous, so he would go on an adventure with him now.
"This place has been peaceful for hundreds of years. Maybe I was too worried and went down rashly. What if something happens?" Yin Chengyu added.
That's the case, but Lin Xiuran really cares about the bottom of the lake. Although he knows it will be dangerous, he still feels itchy.
"Senior Brother..." Lin Xiuran explained flatteringly, "I know you are doing it for my own good, afraid that something will happen to me, and worrying about me, but there is obviously something under the lake, not to mention, if the bottom of the lake is really If there is any formation, even if it has been safe and sound for 600 years, it will still be a hidden danger in the future, and there will be a day."
"Someday?" Yin Chengyu categorically retorted, "It doesn't matter to me if others don't go down and die. You are not allowed to go down...you are not allowed to go down and wander around. What if something happens? "
Lin Xiuran sighed pretentiously: "Brother is really serious. He just showed his heart and started to scare me. If you really got it, you don't need to coax me anymore."
Although Yin Chengyu knew that Lin Xiuran was getting narrow again, he was still annoyed by his idle attitude, and said angrily, "Nonsense! Don't you know the danger? If you take such a risk, if...if... ..."
For the rest, he didn't continue talking.In his previous life, Lin Xiuran's meridians were cut off, his body was bruised and covered in blood, which was always a thorn in his heart, so he was not at all willing to let Lin Xiuran take risks in such an uncertain place.
It's just that there is no way to say this directly to Lin Xiuran.
Seeing that Yin Chengyu was really angry, Lin Xiuran no longer dared to make jokes, restrained the narrow and teasing smile on his face, and said seriously: "Brother, as the saying goes, 'If you don't enter the tiger's lair, you will get a tiger's cub', we wait for monks, the chance is natural I also have to seek it out of danger, although the situation under this lake is unknown, but in the dark, I always feel that there is something attracting me, maybe this is my chance."
Seeing that he couldn't resist him, Yin Chengyu shook his head helplessly after all, and sighed: "Forget it, since ancient times, you have been seeking wealth and wealth. Since you are so determined, then the things below must be destined for you. You walk behind me. Even if something happens to me, I will definitely be able to protect you."
The lake was very cold, Yin Chengyu protected Lin Xiuran behind him, and the two dived down again.
Still returning to the place blocked by the transparent barrier before, the two groped along the barrier and tried their best to get past it.
Yin Chengyu put his hand on it, released his spiritual power and explored it, trying to find any clues, but no matter how hard he tried to find out his spiritual power and consciousness, it was in vain, and this invisible barrier was hardly affected in any way. , without any waves.
Lin Xiuran poked Yin Chengyu's lower back and signaled Yin Chengyu to step aside and let him try it himself.
Yin Chengyu moved away a little when he heard the words, and watched Lin Xiuran's every move with bated breath, for fear of any accidents.
Lin Xiuran was much more relaxed than him. After looking up and down, he carefully stretched out his hand and pressed it forward lightly.
It was still the same as before, nothing could be seen, only an invisible force prevented him from moving forward.Lin Xiuran released a wisp of spiritual power from his palm.
A light blue light flickered for a moment, but the speed was too fast, and before Lin Xiuran could see clearly, he returned to silence.
But even this brief moment of light is enough to encourage Lin Xiuran to keep trying.
He pulled out Han Qiong almost without hesitation. Yin Chengyu thought that he wanted to forcefully break the formation, so he subconsciously pulled him behind him. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiuran pulled out Han Qiong to cut through his own fingers. Pointed, forced out a drop of blood.
Yin Chengyu was startled when he smelled the smell of blood, but before he could stop it, he saw that Lin Xiuran had already pressed his bleeding hand to it.
His unhesitating action shocked Yin Chengyu almost out of his wits. The drop of blood overflowed from Lin Xiuran's fingertips, but did not dissolve in the water, but drifted along the undercurrent, and then seeped into the almost nothingness formation.
The dazzling brilliance instantly illuminated the entire bottom of the lake. Stimulated by the strong light, Yin Chengyu's eyes were instantly blank, and he could hardly see anything. He could only reach out and grab Lin Xiuran by feeling, and pulled Lin Xiuran into his arms to protect him.
After his eyes got used to the light again, he realized that he had reached the shore.
Lin Xiuran was also blinded by the sudden bright light, with tears streaming from his eyes, he pinned Han Qiong under his armpit, couldn't help but free his hand to rub his eyes, his hands were a little rough, and his eyes were red.
Yin Chengyu quickly grabbed his hands, and gently lifted Lin Xiuran's eyelids with the other hand. After carefully checking to make sure there was nothing in his eyes, he cursed angrily.
"You're good at it? I told you not to take risks several times. Where did you hear that?"
Lin Xiuran also knew that he was too impatient and acted rashly, so facing Yin Chengyu's scolding, he felt very guilty for a while, and dared not say a word. When Yin Chengyu finished speaking, he smiled flatteringly: "Senior brother, It's my fault, you put out the fire first?"
Yin Chengyu's teeth itch with hatred, and he was reluctant to really scold Lin Xiuran, so he only said a few words, as a reprimand, and lightly exposed the matter.
The scene on the lake was the same as when they entered the water before, the grass was luxuriant and green, and several waterfowl and wild ducks were playing with each other.
"Could it be that we are thinking too much?" Lin Xiuran hesitated, "But what is the purpose of the formation at the bottom of the lake? Is it just to send us back to the shore?"
Yin Chengyu was also a little puzzled, but he only cared about Lin Xiuran. Since there was nothing wrong with Lin Xiuran, he no longer cared about these things.
"Maybe it's been in disrepair for a long time, and we don't know what's wrong. Let's go first?" Yin Chengyu said.
But soon, he changed his words: "No, this is not where we have been before."
The lake they saw in the secret realm before had very little aura, but at this time, the aura around the lake was obviously full of aura, the flowers on the shore weeping willows, and the swimming fish that jumped out of the water from time to time on the lake all showed a vibrant look. look like.
Alarm bells rang in Yin Chengyu's heart, and Lin Xiuran also realized that something was wrong, so he held Han Qiong tightly, preparing for danger that might arise at any time.
Voices came from the woods not far away, but right now there is not even a place to cover their bodies, and the two of them have nowhere to hide, so Yin Chengyu simply stood in front of Lin Xiuran generously, intending to quietly watch him Change.
Judging from the voice, the person who spoke was a clear and bright boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, very lively and cheerful: "Qinglan! I won yesterday, and you want to compete again today? I won't let you!"
The other person was very unconvinced and said: "Who wants you to let it go! I just made a mistake yesterday, and you only won me by a little bit. Compared with today, it is still uncertain who will win and who will win! "
The two fought and bickered all the way, and ran out of the woods chasing each other, running straight in front of Lin Xiuran and Yin Chengyu.
"It doesn't seem like a disciple who was tested in the secret realm?" Lin Xiuran asked hesitantly.
Yin Chengyu felt that one of them looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a while.
Lin Xiuran thought for a while, and boldly stepped forward to say hello: "Fellow Daoist, I'm Mingheshan..."
Unexpectedly, the man ignored him completely, and instead said to his companion with great interest: "Qinglan! Look at that wild duck in front, it's getting fat again!"
"It's an illusion..." Yin Chengyu murmured, "Xiu Ran, they can't see us."
The other person was wearing a plain robe with intricate dark patterns embroidered on it. He looked dignified and had a folding fan in his hand. He looked quite young and coquettish.
"Where? Which one?" he asked, eyes wide.
The two chatted together for a long time, but Lin Xiuran listened patiently for a long time but did not hear anything useful. Yin Chengyu signaled him to be calm, and after thinking hard for a long time, he finally remembered where he had met before. over that person.
In the ruins of the palace in the secret realm, the man Yin Chengyu saw when he was drawn into the illusion was clearly very similar to the young man in front of him. He thought that when the young man grew up, he would look like the one he saw in the secret realm.
That being the case, could it be that what the two of them saw also happened back then?
These two teenagers are obviously lively and playful. Although they set up their fishing rods, they were both playing and playing. The float was pulled down several times, but they didn't care.
After fighting enough, the two of them felt tired, lay down on the grass, and started chatting again.
"Qinglan, are you really going to leave tomorrow?"
The young man called Qing Lan said in a low voice: "Yes, my father has urged me several times, and I don't want to go back..."
Perhaps because they were talking about parting, the two teenagers were in a bad mood. After a long silence, one of them smiled reluctantly and said, "Qinglan, close your eyes, and I'll give you something."
Seeing that Qinglan closed his eyes obediently, he rolled over and kissed each other with lips and tongues intertwined.
Lin Xiuran felt a little embarrassed, and looked at Yin Chengyu subconsciously, but soon felt that looking at Yin Chengyu at this time seemed even more embarrassing, and for a while showed a bit of bewildered embarrassment.Fortunately, the two of them didn't kiss for too long. After some lingering, the boy who was pressed down sat up and said with feigned anger, "Qi Shuhuan! Is this the only gift you're talking about? My son Could it be so easy to dismiss?"
Qi Shuhuan put on a terrified posture very cooperatively: "Mr. Su, please spare me!"
Su Qinglan couldn't help laughing, and Qi Shuhuan took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it over.
"This black jade has been with me since I was born. If you can't see each other day and night in the future, you... see it as you see me."
Yin Chengyu only felt his heart skip a beat, and felt that this jade pendant looked very familiar.
Su Qinglan took the jade pendant, tied it around her waist, and then untied the dagger hanging from her waist.
"This dagger was forged by my father himself when I was born. I gave it to you, and you too..." He blushed a little, and said with a vicious look, "This is what I ordered for you. Love token, you should be careful to put it away!"
That dagger was obviously the one that Yin Chengyu found in the cave on Minghe Mountain.
Works Volume Extra 1 Tanabata (Previous Life)
Episode 1 Qixi Festival (Previous Life)
In July, the moonlight is cool, and after nightfall, the Minghe Mountain is even more silent, only a few rustling insects sounded occasionally, but it is not noisy, but more clear and distant.
Because it was the Qixi Festival, many disciples found various excuses to sneak down the mountain to watch the lantern festival.Young disciples like to join in the fun, and it's not a big deal after all. Even the elders, most of them just turn a blind eye and don't discipline them.
The lights on Minghe Peak seemed to have been turned off, and it was so dark that Yin Chengyu had already rested a long time ago, but woke up by himself after sleeping halfway, and vaguely saw a figure in the courtyard, so he walked around. Shoes opened the door.
Lin Xiuran was lying on the stone table, her hair crown had been loosened, and her black hair was hanging around her side, as if she had fallen asleep. There was still a drinking utensil beside her, and a wine glass carved from warm jade was poured out beside her hand. It seemed that she was drinking It was more than that before I fell asleep.
The slender neck was just exposed in front of Yin Chengyu's eyes, and it seemed that he could easily take the life of the man in front of him with just a slight fold.
It's rare to see Lin Xiuran so vulnerable and defenseless, Yin Chengyu's eyes gradually turned red, as long as he does it now, Lin Xiuran has no power to resist, and if he is still asleep, his neck will be wrung.
Yin Chengyu leaned over lightly, and put his hand on Lin Xiuran's neck, but after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't use any force.After all, it was in Minghe Mountain, if something happened, he might not be able to escape.
What's more...he approached Lin Xiuran at the beginning, wasn't it just to find out the revenge of the extermination of the family that day, if he only killed Lin Xiuran, it would be too cheap for the Lin family.
Lin Xiuran snorted softly, as if awakened by his movement, Yin Chengyu withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and instantly put himself on alert, for fear that Lin Xiuran would discover his previous intentions.
But Lin Xiuran just rubbed his eyes, seemed to be still drunk, and stared blankly at Yin Chengyu for a long time, before showing a gentle smile: "Ayu?"
Yin Chengyu nodded calmly, put the poured wine glass back, sat down opposite Lin Xiuran, and said in a caring tone, "Why didn't you go to rest and drink alone in the yard?"
Lin Xiuran looked at him with some embarrassment, and saw that his hair was untied, so he tried to pull it up again, but finally gave up, letting his long hair unwind, poured two more glasses of wine, and handed one to Yin Chengyu .
"A good day is rare, would Ayu want to have a few drinks with me?"
Lin Xiuran still had such a gentle and gentle smile, Yin Chengyu looked at him, reached out to take the wine glass, and drank it down generously: "The taste of this wine seems to be a bit thin."
Seeing his unrestrained appearance, Lin Xiuran couldn't help laughing: "Good wine needs to be tasted slowly, how can you drink peonies like you?"
On the contrary, Yin Chengyu sneered nonchalantly: "Since it's wine, it's meant to be drunk by others. If you stick to the form, wouldn't it be a waste of money? Are we monks still restricted by the rules of mortals?"
Lin Xiuran shook his head helplessly, and poured him another glass: "Forget it, anyway, you are right, if you think the taste of this wine is bland, then in a few days I will drink your last drink." Jiu Yunchun, who likes it, bring me two more jars."
Yin Chengyu's eyes rolled, and Dang even refused: "Why bother? You don't drink much on weekdays, so even if you get it, you will inevitably spoil a good thing."
"Don't you like to drink? How can it be considered a waste?" Lin Xiuran said with a smile, "It's not a troublesome thing after all, I just tell my family."
Yin Chengyu shook his head, pretending to be earnest: "Alcohol is not necessary. Drinking too much can easily disturb the mind. I'd better concentrate on cultivation right now."
Seeing Yin Chengyu's hard work, Lin Xiuran was even more happy. On a whim, he took the initiative to say: "It's a beautiful day, why don't we exchange ideas and fight to relieve our worries?"
This was exactly what Yin Chengyu wanted, and he immediately smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why don't we give it a shot?"
He knew that Lin Xiuran had obtained a spirit pill a few days ago, so he guessed his temperament and brought up the matter. As expected, Lin Xiuran agreed immediately, saying that as long as Yin Chengyu won him, he would take the pill he got a few days ago Washing the panacea is a lottery.
Although it was a duel, Yin Chengyu didn't mean to hold back, not because he was eager to win, but because of his temperament, he never meant to "leave room for others", and secondly, it was because Lin Xiuran was really good at swordsmanship. After a few tricks, it seemed deliberate.
Although he wanted to use Lin Xiuran to avenge the annihilation of the family, he didn't want to still curry favor with him in this matter.
Naturally, Lin Xiuran has always used swords. Although Yin Chengyu is better at talisman circles, he will inevitably be a little overwhelmed when encountering short-handed combat. Therefore, Lin Xiuran has also taught him a lot of sword moves. According to some sword manuals, Yin Chengyu's swordsmanship is not bad, since he said he was going to make two moves, he naturally chose the sword.
Lin Xiuran thrust his sword into the ground, and the dust all over the ground suddenly rose several feet, and a circle of faintly visible talismans appeared in midair. He was ready and looked at Yin Chengyu with a smile.
Because it was the first quarter moon, the crescent moon in the sky swept away like a crescent's eyebrows, and there was also a cold light on the bright sword blade. Yin Chengyu raised his sword finger and wiped lightly on the spine of the sword, feeling the killing intent that had been suppressed just now It was boiling again.
The moonlight was very bleak, and it was covered by clouds again at this moment, making it even darker and deeper. The two of them came and went, sword shadows intertwined, and the grape vines in the yard were covered with bursts of greenery due to the surging sword energy of the two men fighting. When the waves came, sometimes a few leaves were blown down, and before they landed, they were crushed by the sword energy.
Yin Chengyu brushed Lin Xiuran's neck with his sword and swept towards it. Lin Xiuran did not dodge or dodge, he blocked with his horizontal sword, the blades collided, sparks flew everywhere, and made an ear-piercing "chi la" sound.
Just a little bit... Just a little bit, this sword could wipe Lin Xiuran's throat.
The killing intent that was suppressed in his heart boiled up again, Yin Chengyu even thought a little badly in his heart, if he killed Lin Xiuran by mistake during the duel, no one would notice the mistake, right?Even if he was not killed, it didn't matter, even if he was hurt, with Lin Xiuran's meek temper, he wouldn't care about it.
But at the moment of his hesitation, the situation that was almost the same was instantly reversed, and the long sword sank into his body, making a dull sound.
Yin Chengyu lowered his head in disbelief, Lin Xiuran's cold needle was inserted into his chest, and the chill instantly swept over his whole body.
The surrounding scenery had changed from a small courtyard on Minghe Peak to a cliff crying like a ghost. Lin Xiuran stood tall on the edge of the cliff, and he only needed to take a step back to reach the Fallen Demon Abyss.
"This sword is for my parents to learn from, and also for... you have deliberately cheated me for half your life..."
Yin Chengyu trembled all over, regardless of the sword wound on his chest, he stepped forward to pull Lin Xiuran back, but just as he moved, Lin Xiuran took another step back.
Yin Chengyu had no choice but to take the initiative to step back. He wanted to explain to Lin Xiuran, but after hesitating for a long time, he couldn't even say a word.
It shouldn't be like this.
"Xiu Ran...you..."
Before he could say what he wanted to say, Lin Xiuran staggered, and the spiritual power all over his body surged out like a flood bursting an embankment. The violent spiritual power even lifted up the sand and stones on the cliff, covering the sky. The moon is in chaos.
Lin Xiuran smiled briskly, but this smile no longer had the gentleness and elegance of the past, instead it seemed a little mocking and embarrassing: "I apologize with death, the relatives of the Lin family and the disciples of the sect, I still hope you..."
Yin Chengyu only felt that his mind was blank, and before he could stretch out his hand, Lin Xiuran, who had lost all vitality, fell lightly from the cliff.
During the long night, Yin Chengyu suddenly woke up from a dream. The dream was so real that he broke into a cold sweat from fright.
Fortunately, after waking up, he was still in the bedroom of the Demon Palace, layers of crocodile curtains stretched across the floor, green smoke billowed from the incense burner, and the shadows of candles flickered behind the curtains, even though there was no moonlight , but it also caused a hazy candlelight in the palace bedroom.
Yin Chengyu wiped the sweat off his face, hugged Lin Xiuran who was beside him with some embarrassment, and complained in a low voice: "For some reason, I just had a nightmare..."
Yin Chengyu babbled about how terrifying and dangerous the dream was, and Lin Xiuran stood beside him without moving, quietly listening to his almost rambling narration.
While talking, Yin Chengyu burst into tears.
That year's Qixi Festival, why did Lin Xiuran, who was always calm and reserved, passed out drunk in the courtyard?
The memories of the past seem to have been dusted and blurred, but it only takes such a moment to become fresh and bright again.
At that time, the Yang family intended to marry the Lin family. Although Yin Chengyu didn't care about Lin Xiuran's marriage, his former fiancée was about to become Lin Xiuran's wife, which made him furious. , which made him sad for a long time because of this non-existent marriage.
Now that I think about it, I'm afraid he cared about it in his heart at the time, right?
On the cliff, what exactly was Lin Xiuran's unfinished words to him?
He deliberately planned to destroy the entire Lin family, and drove Lin Xiuran into a corner. In the end, Lin Xiuran just stabbed him with a sword, which was too cheap for him.
"The relatives of the Lin family and disciples of the sect", other than that, does Lin Xiuran have anything else he wants to say to him?When the two of them reached the end, was there only one sword left?
Yin Chengyu only felt that the old wound on his heart was aching, but in the final analysis, he was to blame for everything.
In 50 years, even if you have a cat and a dog, you may have developed a relationship long ago.
But Lin Xiuran raised such a living man for 50 years, but in the end, what he raised was a mean and ungrateful Zhongshan wolf.
Yin Chengyu had some bad premonitions, feeling that there would be something at the bottom of the lake, his eyebrows were tightly knit together, he stretched out his hand and nodded his head, signaling Lin Xiuran to float up again.
A very strong uneasiness welled up in his heart, and as soon as he surfaced, he couldn't help but persuade Lin Xiuran: "This situation is too weird, Xiuran, why don't you go down?"
This surprised Lin Xiuran, he thought that Yin Chengyu had always been courageous, so he would go on an adventure with him now.
"This place has been peaceful for hundreds of years. Maybe I was too worried and went down rashly. What if something happens?" Yin Chengyu added.
That's the case, but Lin Xiuran really cares about the bottom of the lake. Although he knows it will be dangerous, he still feels itchy.
"Senior Brother..." Lin Xiuran explained flatteringly, "I know you are doing it for my own good, afraid that something will happen to me, and worrying about me, but there is obviously something under the lake, not to mention, if the bottom of the lake is really If there is any formation, even if it has been safe and sound for 600 years, it will still be a hidden danger in the future, and there will be a day."
"Someday?" Yin Chengyu categorically retorted, "It doesn't matter to me if others don't go down and die. You are not allowed to go down...you are not allowed to go down and wander around. What if something happens? "
Lin Xiuran sighed pretentiously: "Brother is really serious. He just showed his heart and started to scare me. If you really got it, you don't need to coax me anymore."
Although Yin Chengyu knew that Lin Xiuran was getting narrow again, he was still annoyed by his idle attitude, and said angrily, "Nonsense! Don't you know the danger? If you take such a risk, if...if... ..."
For the rest, he didn't continue talking.In his previous life, Lin Xiuran's meridians were cut off, his body was bruised and covered in blood, which was always a thorn in his heart, so he was not at all willing to let Lin Xiuran take risks in such an uncertain place.
It's just that there is no way to say this directly to Lin Xiuran.
Seeing that Yin Chengyu was really angry, Lin Xiuran no longer dared to make jokes, restrained the narrow and teasing smile on his face, and said seriously: "Brother, as the saying goes, 'If you don't enter the tiger's lair, you will get a tiger's cub', we wait for monks, the chance is natural I also have to seek it out of danger, although the situation under this lake is unknown, but in the dark, I always feel that there is something attracting me, maybe this is my chance."

Yin Chengyu quickly grabbed his hands, and gently lifted Lin Xiuran's eyelids with the other hand. After carefully checking to make sure there was nothing in his eyes, he cursed angrily.

After some lingering, the boy who was pressed down sat up and said with feigned anger, "Qi Shuhuan! Is this the only gift you're talking about? My son Could it be so easy to dismiss?"
Qi Shuhuan put on a terrified posture very cooperatively: "Mr. Su, please spare me!"
Su Qinglan couldn't help laughing, and Qi Shuhuan took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it over.
"This black jade has been with me since I was born. If you can't see each other day and night in the future, you... see it as you see me."
Yin Chengyu only felt his heart skip a beat, and felt that this jade pendant looked very familiar.
Su Qinglan took the jade pendant, tied it around her waist, and then untied the dagger hanging from her waist.
"This dagger was forged by my father himself when I was born. I gave it to you, and you too..." He blushed a little, and said with a vicious look, "This is what I ordered for you. Love token, you should be careful to put it away!"
That dagger was obviously the one that Yin Chengyu found in the cave on Minghe Mountain.
Works Volume Extra 1 Tanabata (Previous Life)
Episode 1 Qixi Festival (Previous Life)
In July, the moonlight is cool, and after nightfall, the Minghe Mountain is even more silent, only a few rustling insects sounded occasionally, but it is not noisy, but more clear and distant.
Because it was the Qixi Festival, many disciples found various excuses to sneak down the mountain to watch the lantern festival.Young disciples like to join in the fun, and it's not a big deal after all. Even the elders, most of them just turn a blind eye and don't discipline them.
The lights on Minghe Peak seemed to have been turned off, and it was so dark that Yin Chengyu had already rested a long time ago, but woke up by himself after sleeping halfway, and vaguely saw a figure in the courtyard, so he walked around. Shoes opened the door.
Lin Xiuran was lying on the stone table, her hair crown had been loosened, and her black hair was hanging around her side, as if she had fallen asleep. There was still a drinking utensil beside her, and a wine glass carved from warm jade was poured out beside her hand. It seemed that she was drinking It was more than that before I fell asleep.
The slender neck was just exposed in front of Yin Chengyu's eyes, and it seemed that he could easily take the life of the man in front of him with just a slight fold.
It's rare to see Lin Xiuran so vulnerable and defenseless, Yin Chengyu's eyes gradually turned red, as long as he does it now, Lin Xiuran has no power to resist, and if he is still asleep, his neck will be wrung.
Yin Chengyu leaned over lightly, and put his hand on Lin Xiuran's neck, but after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't use any force.After all, it was in Minghe Mountain, if something happened, he might not be able to escape.
What's more...he approached Lin Xiuran at the beginning, wasn't it just to find out the revenge of the extermination of the family that day, if he only killed Lin Xiuran, it would be too cheap for the Lin family.
Lin Xiuran snorted softly, as if awakened by his movement, Yin Chengyu withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and instantly put himself on alert, for fear that Lin Xiuran would discover his previous intentions.
But Lin Xiuran just rubbed his eyes, seemed to be still drunk, and stared blankly at Yin Chengyu for a long time, before showing a gentle smile: "Ayu?"
Yin Chengyu nodded calmly, put the poured wine glass back, sat down opposite Lin Xiuran, and said in a caring tone, "Why didn't you go to rest and drink alone in the yard?"
Lin Xiuran looked at him with some embarrassment, and saw that his hair was untied, so he tried to pull it up again, but finally gave up, letting his long hair unwind, poured two more glasses of wine, and handed one to Yin Chengyu .
"A good day is rare, would Ayu want to have a few drinks with me?"
Lin Xiuran still had such a gentle and gentle smile, Yin Chengyu looked at him, reached out to take the wine glass, and drank it down generously: "The taste of this wine seems to be a bit thin."
Seeing his unrestrained appearance, Lin Xiuran couldn't help laughing: "Good wine needs to be tasted slowly, how can you drink peonies like you?"
On the contrary, Yin Chengyu sneered nonchalantly: "Since it's wine, it's meant to be drunk by others. If you stick to the form, wouldn't it be a waste of money? Are we monks still restricted by the rules of mortals?"
Lin Xiuran shook his head helplessly, and poured him another glass: "Forget it, anyway, you are right, if you think the taste of this wine is bland, then in a few days I will drink your last drink." Jiu Yunchun, who likes it, bring me two more jars."
Yin Chengyu's eyes rolled, and Dang even refused: "Why bother? You don't drink much on weekdays, so even if you get it, you will inevitably spoil a good thing."
"Don't you like to drink? How can it be considered a waste?" Lin Xiuran said with a smile, "It's not a troublesome thing after all, I just tell my family."
Yin Chengyu shook his head, pretending to be earnest: "Alcohol is not necessary. Drinking too much can easily disturb the mind. I'd better concentrate on cultivation right now."
Seeing Yin Chengyu's hard work, Lin Xiuran was even more happy. On a whim, he took the initiative to say: "It's a beautiful day, why don't we exchange ideas and fight to relieve our worries?"
This was exactly what Yin Chengyu wanted, and he immediately smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why don't we give it a shot?"
He knew that Lin Xiuran had obtained a spirit pill a few days ago, so he guessed his temperament and brought up the matter. As expected, Lin Xiuran agreed immediately, saying that as long as Yin Chengyu won him, he would take the pill he got a few days ago Washing the panacea is a lottery.
Although it was a duel, Yin Chengyu didn't mean to hold back, not because he was eager to win, but because of his temperament, he never meant to "leave room for others", and secondly, it was because Lin Xiuran was really good at swordsmanship. After a few tricks, it seemed deliberate.
Although he wanted to use Lin Xiuran to avenge the annihilation of the family, he didn't want to still curry favor with him in this matter.
Naturally, Lin Xiuran has always used swords. Although Yin Chengyu is better at talisman circles, he will inevitably be a little overwhelmed when encountering short-handed combat. Therefore, Lin Xiuran has also taught him a lot of sword moves. According to some sword manuals, Yin Chengyu's swordsmanship is not bad, since he said he was going to make two moves, he naturally chose the sword.
Lin Xiuran thrust his sword into the ground, and the dust all over the ground suddenly rose several feet, and a circle of faintly visible talismans appeared in midair. He was ready and looked at Yin Chengyu with a smile.
Because it was the first quarter moon, the crescent moon in the sky swept away like a crescent's eyebrows, and there was also a cold light on the bright sword blade. Yin Chengyu raised his sword finger and wiped lightly on the spine of the sword, feeling the killing intent that had been suppressed just now It was boiling again.
The moonlight was very bleak, and it was covered by clouds again at this moment, making it even darker and deeper. The two of them came and went, sword shadows intertwined, and the grape vines in the yard were covered with bursts of greenery due to the surging sword energy of the two men fighting. When the waves came, sometimes a few leaves were blown down, and before they landed, they were crushed by the sword energy.
Yin Chengyu brushed Lin Xiuran's neck with his sword and swept towards it. Lin Xiuran did not dodge or dodge, he blocked with his horizontal sword, the blades collided, sparks flew everywhere, and made an ear-piercing "chi la" sound.
Just a little bit... Just a little bit, this sword could wipe Lin Xiuran's throat.
The killing intent that was suppressed in his heart boiled up again, Yin Chengyu even thought a little badly in his heart, if he killed Lin Xiuran by mistake during the duel, no one would notice the mistake, right?Even if he was not killed, it didn't matter, even if he was hurt, with Lin Xiuran's meek temper, he wouldn't care about it.
But at the moment of his hesitation, the situation that was almost the same was instantly reversed, and the long sword sank into his body, making a dull sound.
Yin Chengyu lowered his head in disbelief, Lin Xiuran's cold needle was inserted into his chest, and the chill instantly swept over his whole body.
The surrounding scenery had changed from a small courtyard on Minghe Peak to a cliff crying like a ghost. Lin Xiuran stood tall on the edge of the cliff, and he only needed to take a step back to reach the Fallen Demon Abyss.
"This sword is for my parents to learn from, and also for... you have deliberately cheated me for half your life..."
Yin Chengyu trembled all over, regardless of the sword wound on his chest, he stepped forward to pull Lin Xiuran back, but just as he moved, Lin Xiuran took another step back.
Yin Chengyu had no choice but to take the initiative to step back. He wanted to explain to Lin Xiuran, but after hesitating for a long time, he couldn't even say a word.
It shouldn't be like this.
"Xiu Ran...you..."
Before he could say what he wanted to say, Lin Xiuran staggered, and the spiritual power all over his body surged out like a flood bursting an embankment. The violent spiritual power even lifted up the sand and stones on the cliff, covering the sky. The moon is in chaos.
Lin Xiuran smiled briskly, but this smile no longer had the gentleness and elegance of the past, instead it seemed a little mocking and embarrassing: "I apologize with death, the relatives of the Lin family and the disciples of the sect, I still hope you..."
Yin Chengyu only felt that his mind was blank, and before he could stretch out his hand, Lin Xiuran, who had lost all vitality, fell lightly from the cliff.
During the long night, Yin Chengyu suddenly woke up from a dream. The dream was so real that he broke into a cold sweat from fright.
Fortunately, after waking up, he was still in the bedroom of the Demon Palace, layers of crocodile curtains stretched across the floor, green smoke billowed from the incense burner, and the shadows of candles flickered behind the curtains, even though there was no moonlight , but it also caused a hazy candlelight in the palace bedroom.
Yin Chengyu wiped the sweat off his face, hugged Lin Xiuran who was beside him with some embarrassment, and complained in a low voice: "For some reason, I just had a nightmare..."
Yin Chengyu babbled about how terrifying and dangerous the dream was, and Lin Xiuran stood beside him without moving, quietly listening to his almost rambling narration.
While talking, Yin Chengyu burst into tears.
That year's Qixi Festival, why did Lin Xiuran, who was always calm and reserved, passed out drunk in the courtyard?
The memories of the past seem to have been dusted and blurred, but it only takes such a moment to become fresh and bright again.
At that time, the Yang family intended to marry the Lin family. Although Yin Chengyu didn't care about Lin Xiuran's marriage, his former fiancée was about to become Lin Xiuran's wife, which made him furious. , which made him sad for a long time because of this non-existent marriage.
Now that I think about it, I'm afraid he cared about it in his heart at the time, right?
On the cliff, what exactly was Lin Xiuran's unfinished words to him?
He deliberately planned to destroy the entire Lin family, and drove Lin Xiuran into a corner. In the end, Lin Xiuran just stabbed him with a sword, which was too cheap for him.
"The relatives of the Lin family and disciples of the sect", other than that, does Lin Xiuran have anything else he wants to say to him?When the two of them reached the end, was there only one sword left?
Yin Chengyu only felt that the old wound on his heart was aching, but in the final analysis, he was to blame for everything.
In 50 years, even if you have a cat and a dog, you may have developed a relationship long ago.
But Lin Xiuran raised such a living man for 50 years, but in the end, what he raised was a mean and ungrateful Zhongshan wolf.
