The day of fortune-telling for the dragon

The death of the five elements tree, and the withering of the entire Jiangling flowers and trees this time, caused even more shock and panic than last time.During the illness of the city lord, Sang Yi presided over the affairs of the mansion, and one person did the work of two people. Although he tried his best to block the mouths of everyone, but the last time Yao Feimeng and the two disappeared under the blue sky first, not only blocked Can't wait, the rumor that "there are evil things in Jiangling" is spreading more and more widely.

At this point, the matter once again alarmed the people in the capital, and the young emperor issued an order to ask, first, why Xie Ran did not enter King Qin of the capital for so long?

Second, who is causing trouble in Jiangling?If there are evil spirits, then kill them and eliminate them.

Wumei has officially settled in Ziwei Terrace, but since entering Beijing, there has been no news. It seems that she has been entangled in another troublesome matter. She is far away in the sky, so naturally she can't care about the problem here.The young emperor asked Qinggong Grass Witch to come out of the mountain three times. When Sang Yi heard the news, he heard that this person was already heading to Jiangling and would arrive in the town in a few days.

Back then, the three immortals of the Qing Palace, Ning Qing and Taoist Hu Hua had already left behind, but this grass hag was left behind. She was extremely mysterious and had no news for decades, yet she came out of the mountain at this moment.

Sang Yi tried to invite this person, but this grass-ghost woman did not see any outsiders, and said: "A prostitute raised by the Lord of Jiangling, what qualifications does he have to come to see me?"

Sang Yi didn't reply, turned around and ordered his subordinates to seal the gate of the city, prohibiting people and horses from entering and leaving, if he wanted to pass through, he had to approve the name post himself.A few days later, scouts came to report that a group of people were blocked in Caoji Mountain outside the city, and it rained every now and then, so they had to live in a muddy cave every day, and the people inside scolded Sang Yi's mother every day.

Sang Yi smiled, but still didn't reply.

This day Xuanlong went to the mansion to check on Xie Ran's condition, but he didn't see any improvement.The last time Hua Jue came here, he tried it with the judge pen, but unfortunately the result was not satisfactory. Xie Ran is the life of grass and trees, and his serious illness is because Jiangling lacks the five elements of this vein. It was broken by this imbalance again, just like fine sand squeezed tightly with fingers, the tighter it is, the more it loosens.

Xuanlong said: "There is no other way, he can't stay in Jiangling, send him to other places to cultivate."

Sang Yi said: "I will, thank you for your guidance, young master."

Xuanlong heard the news from the scouts at that time, so he asked Sang Yi: "Who is coming outside?"

Sang Yi said: "A group of witches and Gu masters who are not very polite."

"Witch Gu Master?" Xuan Long was chewing on three words, just about to get up and go out to check the situation, when he heard Sang Yi ask again: "Speaking of which, why didn't Xiao Huaer come?"

Xuanlong said: "I'm arguing, I'm angry."

Sang Yi smiled: "After all, the time you spend together is still a bit short. I remember that it was less than a year? Young people are impulsive and careless, and they open up their problems. This is easy to handle. You don't have to worry, young master, Xiaohua This kid, if you talk it over with him, he won't be petty anymore."

Xuanlong didn't speak.

Sang Yi said again: "One more question, young master, I regard Biyu as a family member, and I have always regarded myself as an elder. Although I didn't do very well, I am also very happy to have someone by his side. I don't know the name of young master, so it is convenient to call him in the future? My name is Sang Mingyi, and you can call me whatever you want."

Xuanlong walked to the door and looked back at him.Sang Yi has sincere eyes and is very calm.

"I don't have a surname or a character. Xiaofeng, this is my name." After Xuanlong finished speaking, he nodded to him and went out.

"Laughing at the wind..." Sang Yi was silent for a while, and then asked someone to prepare carriages and horses, and wrote a text message to the old man in the neighboring Jiangzhou, planning to ask Xie Ran to change places.Because he was not in charge, he forwarded another letter, asking Zheng Wang to take Xie Ran's place to ask Emperor Shao for leave, saying that he was seriously ill and unable to leave.

His subordinates are quick and efficient, and they have already packed up in a short while. When the old man in Jiangzhou receives the letter, Xie Ran can be accompanied by others.

Sang Yi sat in front of his bed, leaned over and touched his forehead, and straightened the sick man's long hair: "I'm going to change your place. Sorry, I can't be with you this time, Jiang Ling can leave it to me at ease." .”

Xie Ran remained motionless, eyes closed.

"Don't be afraid of anything, we still have the protection of the gods. Have you ever heard of the dragon giving birth to nine sons? We have a living god here. I will tell you about it when you come back."

Sang Yi pinched his nose, her tone soft.Both of them were soldiers, and they were about to part, so they didn't have much love to say, let alone one of them was unconscious.After looking at him, Sang Yi got up and covered him with the quilt and was about to leave. In a blink of an eye, she felt that her wrist was being pulled.

Xie Ran's hand was hot, but he held it harder.

He whispered: "The Tiger Talisman is under the marble box in our room."

After hearing this, Sang Yi couldn't help but smile: "Why put it there? When will your habit of throwing things get better?"

Xie Ran didn't make any more noise, and the hand holding his wrist lost all strength.Sang Yi stuffed that hand back into the quilt, and softly whispered in his ear: "I'll wait for you to come back." Then she walked out.

Before going out, he took down the long knife hanging behind the door. The weapon has been out of hand for many years, and its sharpness and fierceness have not diminished.He has been given the name of Xie Ran since he was a child. In the door, he is the little military adviser next to the city lord of Jiangling. He is an ordinary accountant in the city lord's mansion. Stepping out of this door, he is Sang Yi.

He is still the young man who was full of vigor and undefeated.

Under the door, the young man in black didn't go far away. Because the dragons are naturally good at hearing, they heard all the farewells of these two people. They were slightly moved, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

On the second day, Sang Yi sent someone to send a message to Hua's house, asking if the two Hua Jue and Xie Ran could go to Jiangzhou along the way.

Xuanlong shook his head and refused: "Hua Jue can't leave Jiangling, thank you Lord Sang for your kindness, don't delay the city lord's affairs, and don't worry about us."

Sang Yi didn't respond.The next day, he suddenly ordered that Jiangling's military supplies be distributed half a month in advance, ordering the people in the city to hoard food and retreat to the deep mountains.With the tiger talisman in hand, Xie Ran's soldiers are his soldiers, and he has no scruples about everything. On the third day, he sent people to block the seven channels in the eight directions of Jiangling, opened the gates to release water, blocked the transportation of grain by ships, and blocked the road outside the city. An official road with low terrain, which turned Jiangling into an isolated city with enough grain reserves to last a whole year.

In just three days, such a method has been completed vigorously.Hua Jue was tied to the bed, and after hearing about it through Xuan Long's report, Monk Zhang Er was still puzzled, but it was Xiao Fenghuang who told him: "Hua Jue, do you believe in human intuition?"

Hua Jue didn't know what it was going to ask, so she replied vaguely: "Let me know."

The little fat bird flapped its wings and said seriously: "You don't know, but I also heard about it when I was in Jiangling Lefang 20 years ago. Your Mr. Sang is famous for his good judgment and good judgment. Carefully, when he followed the admiral of the navy in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to clean up the rogues and pirates, everyone heard his name and everyone was frightened. In the court, all the people he followed could turn bad luck into good fortune. If the leader has an intuition, there are so many people in the world. There is no other capable minister or counselor. He must have his reasons for what he does."

Hua Jue was a little dumbfounded: "Is there going to be a war?"

Little Phoenix tilted his head to look at him: "I don't know."

Hua Jue was tied to the bed all day, still unwilling to reconcile with Xuan Long.When Xuanlong talked to him, he pretended to be asleep, and when Xuanlong wanted to feed him, he dropped the bowl. Later, Xuanlong had less time to go home, so he prepared meals in advance every day, and asked Little Phoenix to warm them up and send them to Huajue.He was afraid that Hua Jue would be bored, so he even bought more than 200 novel novels, each of which was carefully selected, but Hua Jue didn't read any of them, and threw them all into the small pond in front of the courtyard.

Hua Jue felt uncomfortable, only feeling confused about the way ahead.It seemed like everyone had something to do, but he couldn't contribute even an iota of strength.

Xuanlong also refused to tell him anything.

On this day, Hua Jue and Xuan Long had the most severe fight since they met—to be precise, it was the first time the two had quarreled in such a long time. Hua Jue said seriously: "Xiao Feng, let's separate."

Xuanlong took a deep breath: "No."

Hua Jue asked: "When will it work? In other words, when are you going to put me down?"

Xuanlong said: "At least not now."

Hua Jue stopped talking.In the evening, when Xuanlong came back and saw him sleeping, he carefully untied him, wiped his body and changed his clothes, but Hua Jue suddenly woke up, pushed him and wanted to run outside.

Xuanlong was startled by him, and pressed him back on the bed firmly with his backhand, and said in a low voice: "Don't leave."

Hua Jue was so angry that she opened her mouth to curse, but he blocked her lips.Xuanlong leaned over and kissed him deeply, and the kiss made Huajue cry while panting: "Don't think like this... Then I won't be separated from you, you are unreasonable, I will not be with unreasonable people Together. If you go on like this, I won't like you anymore."

Xuanlong pressed his mouth hard and bit his lips hard. Hua Jue frowned in pain, but still choked up and said: "The city lord is sick, you won't let me go, the city lord went to Jiangzhou, Mr. Sang is not here There is no one to take care of him, and you won’t let me go, and now Xiao Fenghuang says that there may be a war, and everyone is helping to transport food, so I can’t just do nothing.”

Xuanlong hastily tied him up again, only shook his head repeatedly, and only three words came out repeatedly: "No."

Hua Dabao hadn't come back yet, and Little Phoenix nestled beside Hua Jue's pillow, also uncharacteristically not waking up.Hua Jue shrank at the end of the bed and hissed: "Xiaofeng, you are not allowed to leave, come here and explain clearly to me."

Xuanlong ignored him, and went straight out the door. There was a rattling sound, and someone's tears were shaken.

He walked out of the courtyard gate, looked back, and seemed to be able to see the invisible barrier above the Hua family courtyard, the life-protecting formation that lasted for 19 years.

He secretly comforted himself: that's the only way.

In the future, I will talk to Hua Jue later, this little guy will never be there, and he is not even willing to listen to what he has to say?

Thinking of this, Xuanlong felt a dull pain in his heart, and before he could turn around, he heard a sneer in his ear.

That sneer was sinister and resentful, and it really rang in his ears, as if he was mocking.But when he looked back, he found that there was no one there.His heart trembled, and Hualong immediately chased in the expected direction, until he chased outside the city, and the top of his head was gradually covered with clouds.

On the muddy grass at the top of the mountain, he saw a man in black clothes standing there, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.He has been patrolling the sky inside and outside Jiangling city day and night these days, but he has never found any traces of people. If Sang Yi hadn't told him who was outside the city, he might not be able to find it for a long time.

This is a blindfold, a blindfold for the gods only.Xuanlong also didn't land on the ground, and lingered in the sky until he heard the man ask clearly: "Ning Qing?"

It was a man's voice, unspeakably weird, as if there was a bit of a low-pitched female voice in it, and it was hoarse and ugly when he spoke: "You have a Ningqing scent on you."

Xuanlong still didn't speak, raised his sharp claws, and fastened the beautiful black scales on his body one by one, making a crisp sound, every inch of his tough muscles tightened, and the dragon spirit beside him was ready to go, sending out The murderous aura even dispelled the dark clouds around him.

The man raised his head and asked loudly: "Xiaofeng, I respect you as a god of the world, so don't interfere in this matter. What I want is Ning Qing's life, you know what the consequences of meddling are - you and your second brother How does it compare? Yazi and Taoist Huhua fought against each other on the top of Heji Mountain, you will know who wins."

Xuanlong let out a long roar, the bone scales on his body grew rapidly, his green eyes turned crimson, he was unmoved, roared and rushed to the ground, directly pierced the man's chest and lungs with his giant claws, but the man did not It seems that there is no blood, only the body is deflated, as if there is a leak.

Immediately afterwards, thousands of tiny red Gu worms crawled out of it, flying towards him densely, biting his scales fiercely, trying to get into the flesh and blood of the ancient gods.Instead of avoiding it, Xuanlong flicked his tail and rushed to the depths of the forest, trying to find out the real human form behind the puppet.However, there was only a loud laugh, and there was no other sound except the rumbling sound of the forest being destroyed.

"You put him in the life-protecting formation. It may be useful to others, but it is useless to me. Master Xiaofeng, have you ever felt the wind? It penetrates every hole and reveals itself...you can make him suffer from any Demons are invading, but can you block the wind? Is there water flowing in your courtyard, and fireworks rising?"

"Unless you turn that small area into a dead place yourself, the five elements will flow forever, and your sweetheart will always be under my control."

He remembered the legend he heard in Hua Jue's dream: Among the three immortals of the Qing Palace, Ning Qing was named, who had the ability to change fate against the sky, and Si Tian, ​​the Taoist protector of flowers, was said to be able to see through the Liuyi astrolabe and know the gods. fate.

The remaining person - Grass Hag, can reversibly change the five elements.

Xuanlong didn't find that person, but he clearly reflected the appearance of that person in his mind: he exaggeratedly turned around on the spot, stretched out his hands and made a silent gesture to him: "Master Xiaofeng, carefully Listen, I will teach you a word that is as powerful as water and fire."

"After tonight, there will be no more water and fire in Jiangling."

The black giant dragon jumping in the forest suddenly changed direction and ran straight to the city.He walked so fast that all the clouds above Jiangling were blown away by the wind, and he really appeared freely, penetrating through every opening.

However, when the heart-wrenching pain caused by Xuanlong pressing down on the Gu worm arrived, his and Hua Jue's small courtyard, their home, had already been reduced to ashes.As soon as he passed by, he was scolded by a strange woman he didn't know, and threw a few sections of burnt rope in front of his eyes: "What is it that tied you up like this! You can't escape even if you run into the water. You almost killed Xiao Huaer!"

There was also someone beside him chattering: "I just said, don't look at this person, but he has never seen him before, he seems to be a foreigner. A simple child like Yan Yu was easily deceived."

Xuanlong ignored them and rushed straight into the crowd to find Hua Jue.Hua Jue was put on the ground and given water, a small section of her hair was cut off by the fire, and there were no visible injuries on her body.Lying on the grass on the ground was a small fat bird that was burnt black, protected by a fat-headed tabby cat.

"what happened?"

He knelt on the ground and took Hua Jue carefully.Hua Jue was still conscious, grabbed his clothes and said, "Firefighting."

Xuan Long looked back, the house was still burning, and everyone scooped up water from the water tanks in their own canals to splash it, but the fire seemed to be burning more and more prosperously.Hua Jue kept crying softly: "Firefighting... don't you know how to use water... The house is burning, the fire is gone, and the little Phoenix is ​​also..."

Xuanlong didn't move, just hugged him tightly in his arms, not letting him look to the other side.

Phoenix is ​​without exception the life of fire. When the little Phoenix fell asleep in the morning, he should have thought that, like the vegetation, anything related to fire in Jiangling had been removed. Since the Huajia fire, people in this place will No more fires, no lamps at night.

Also no more water.Rivers and lakes stop flowing, fish and shrimp die, and become stagnant water. Such water cannot quench the real fire.Xuanlong had no choice, he couldn't drive the dead Shui Ling, he could only watch the fire grow bigger, bigger and smaller, and finally burned everything completely.

nothing left.He and Hua Jue had read the scriptures together, the flowers they planted together, all kinds of gadgets prepared to decorate the wedding room, and the nests cherished by Little Phoenix and Hua Dabao, which Hua Jue had just woven for them a few days ago up garlands.The family that began when they knew each other and were no longer alone only disappeared within a few short months.

Even his treasure, his sweetheart, almost died in the flames.Because he made a mistake.

Hua Jue cried so hard that she could hardly hold back: "Home...my home is gone..."

He seems to be crying all the time these days.Xuanlong carefully gave him the tears from the corners of his eyes, and was beaten by Hua Jue with little strength: "Why don't you come...the home is gone, why don't you come?"

Xuanlong was silent.

With disheveled hair, Hua Jue buried her face in her hands, shrugged her shoulders from crying, and Xuan Long's heart twitched accordingly. After a long while, he suddenly felt a trace of despair.

"Trust me, Hua Jue." He was almost flustered, "Hua Jue, don't cry, don't cry. I did something wrong again, please scold me, let me stay in the flour bag as long as I want, I I won't tie you up again."

Hua Jue shook her head and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's go."

Xuanlong was startled.

After a while, he stood up slowly, looked down at him and said, "Okay."

He couldn't be driven away, and the guy who refused to leave no matter what happened, finally said this word.

Hua Jue sucked in her breath, didn't look at him, and looked down at the ground in front of her.

Xuanlong whispered: "Go and tell Sang Yi to let everyone retreat by boat. There are only two balances left in Jiangling's gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Sooner or later, it will become a dead place where the five elements are extinct. Live here."

"But it may take a few days for me to leave. Don't be sad. My home is gone. I can build another one in the future. Without dragon scales and phoenix tears, you are still a little rich man." Xuanlong felt his voice A little awkward, "I was wrong, I didn't explain it to you. But there are some things, I really can't tell you."

Hua Jue called out his name in a low voice: "Xiaofeng, I regard you as the person I like, there is nothing that cannot be shared."

Xuanlong smiled: "There's nothing to say, remember not to leave Jiangling, I'm not here anymore, so let that phoenix stay with you at all times. Then..."

Otherwise, it seems that there is really nothing to say.Hua Jue is not a fool, she knows how to listen to Mr. Sang and take care of herself.Also alive and well before he came.

His throat really choked: "I..."

Stayed for a while, did not say anything.Hua Jue waited for a long while, the more she waited, the colder her heart became, she wiped away her tears, carefully picked up Xiao Fenghuang, and took Hua Dabao with her.

His back slowly disappeared from Xuanlong's sight.Walking a little slowly, the fire burned a piece of skin on the side of his leg, and it hurt when he pulled it.

Xuan Long whispered: "I like you, Hua Jue."

"I'm really leaving, will you wait for me?"

The author has something to say: Xuanlong is very envious of Mr. Sang and the city owner, because they have people waiting for each other, and because he is a foolish dragon, thinking that Huahua really doesn't want him.
