Chapter Ninety-Five: The Sun Sets
Li Xuandu said: "People of our age, regardless of generation, only talk about age, they are all twenty years old, under thirty years old, and the rivers and lakes say that there are four extremely outstanding women in our generation, namely Su Yuncheng of Cihang Sect, Yu Qingning of Xuannu Sect, palace official of Xuannu Sect, and Qin Su of Forgetful Sect. The first three people, I have already met and had some contact, but this Qin Su Qin girl, her whereabouts are uncertain, and she rarely sets foot in the Central Plains, so Yuan Qiang, since you are also surnamed Qin, I guess whether you will know Qin Su, so I have this question. ”
Bai Juan's attitude was obviously much colder than just now: "The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal really has a wide range of friends, if I remember correctly, when the imperial capital changed, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal had a big fight with Su Yuncheng and Yu Qingning, you hurt Yu Qingning's eyes, and you also fell into the realm, I didn't expect that this could turn enemies into friends." There is also the palace official of the Lady Sect, who also seems to have some interest in the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal, it seems that the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal is worthy of being the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal, not only invincible with the sword, but also invincible with the fairy sword on the woman. ”
Li Xuandu was stunned and said, "We are just ordinary friends." ”
Bai Juan sneered: "Dengzi doesn't have to explain. ”
Li Xuan was speechless.
mentioned the changes in the imperial capital, he suddenly remembered Zhang Baiyue again, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water on his head in the Sanjiu weather, both inside and outside, and at the same time a huge feeling of guilt surged in his heart, he only felt sorry for her, and most of Fang Cai's enthusiastic thoughts disappeared at once.
He tilted his head slightly, looking at the sky through the gaps between the houses on both sides of the street, and it was the setting sun, and the brilliant fiery clouds spread all over the sky, which was extremely beautiful.
At this moment, Li Xuan remembered a lot, mostly from the past, there were joys and sorrows, some people in the past, some people are still there, and some people are no longer there.
Bai Juan heard that Li Xuandu had not spoken for a long time, and felt that he had spoken a little heavy just now, but his face was thin, and he couldn't let go of the woman's reserve to admit his mistake, so he said: "Are you angry? ”
Li Xuandu shook his head: "I'm not angry, I just feel that I was really wrong just now, and I was so offended by the words that I was so sorry for the girl." ”
This time, Li Xuandu seemed to have become the bookkeeper when he first met, although he was polite, he was unfamiliar.
Somehow, Bai Juan felt a sense of loss in his heart, and said: "You are just angry, I shouldn't say that you are a disciple, and I shouldn't slander the names of the two girls between words, it's me who is wrong, I apologize." ”
"I'm not really angry. Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "I just remembered the old man." ”
Bai Juan had also heard about the change in the imperial capital, so he naturally knew that Li Xuandu almost did the thing of Zhang Suqing's son-in-law, and immediately knew who the old man in his mouth was.
Bai Juan said gently: "The dead are gone, and the living are like this." ”
Li Xuandu sighed: "I don't have anything I can't think about, I asked the second senior brother to save her at that time, but she didn't want to give up her father and brother to live." The outside is soft and the inside is soft, people are humiliated, the outside is rigid and the inside is strong, and the people are destroyed, the outside is rigid and the inside is soft, and the people are light, and the outside is soft and the inside is rigid, and the party becomes a big tool. She is a woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, she has her own opinions on everything, and I can't change what she decides. ”
Bai Juan comforted softly: "'Life' is a thing, you can't force it. Even if it is an immortal on the old Xuan list, he can't force the number of lives. Mr. Li, you are still young, you can't die alone, he can't have another good couple before the beginning of the day. ”
Li Xuandu laughed: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, the world is difficult, and I don't know if there will be a day when I will grow old. ”
Qin Su stopped talking, but took out a horizontal flute from his Sumeru treasure, as for the gentle blowing on his lips, Li Xuan didn't know what the name of the song was, he only felt that the sound of the flute was extremely commensurate with the scene in front of him.
After the song, Li Xuandu thanked him.
Bai Juan held the flute behind him with both hands, shook his head and said, "Mr. Li doesn't have to be like this. ”
Li Xuandu sighed: "It's a person who has experienced the war together, so call me Zifu, if you really don't like this title, you can call me Lao Li." I have a brother, his name is Hu Liang, he was originally a disciple of the Mending Heaven Sect, I think you should also know him, he likes to call me so, saying that he calls me Lao Li, and he feels ten years younger. ”
Speaking of this, Li Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Li Xuan understands very well, he seems to be an old friend everywhere, and he has the posture that no one in the world knows you, but those who really have a lifelong friendship and can entrust their lives can't use one hand.
Bai Juan let out a soft "um".
The two fell silent again.
After a while, Li Xuandu collected his mood a little, changed the topic and said, "By the way, we just talked about Qin Su, what is your relationship?
Bai Juan hesitated for a moment and replied: My father is the second in the Qin family, Qin Butang is my third uncle, the 'Heavenly Sword' is my uncle, and Qin Su is my cousin. ”
Li Xuandu let out an "oh" and didn't ask any further.
Bai Juan looked at him and suddenly asked, "Are you disappointed?"
"What?" Li Xuan was stunned for a moment.
Bai Juan stared into his eyes and said word by word, "I ask you, do you feel disappointed?"
Li Xuandu was puzzled: "Where do you start with this?"
Bai Juan said softly: "You also said just now, the generals of the rivers and lakes Qin Su are on a par with Su Yunming, Yu Qingning, and palace officials, and you want to come to this Qin Su...... It's not bad, but I'm so ugly, aren't you disappointed?"
Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "There is no such thing." ”
Bai Juan didn't believe it, and turned around: "You say that women are duplicitous, how can men not, when you meet a beautiful woman, it's not either, but if this woman is not beautiful, it's not." Isn't that right?"
Li Xuandu said helplessly: "I really didn't mean that, I was just curious." ”
Bai Juan snorted, and said faintly: "It's okay to be disappointed, it's okay not to be disappointed, anyway, I was born like this, I can't compare to Qin Su, and I can't compare to the palace officials, Yu Qingning, and Su Yunming." ”
Li Xuandu laughed and said, "Why do you have to compare with them? You are you, and they are them." Could it be that Yan Feiqing married Su Yuncheng, so I have to marry someone who is not inferior to Su Yuncheng?"
As soon as the words came out, Li Xuandu realized that something was wrong, because the words were too ambiguous, as if he had married Bai Juan and was comparing himself with Yan Feiqing. Sure enough, when Bai Juan heard this, although he turned his back to Li Xuandu, he could clearly see that it was already red from his neck to the root of his ears, and he said in shame: "You...... What do you say?!"
Li Xuandu knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I mean...... It's ......"
After a while, Bai Juan turned around, the blush had faded, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Li Xuandu coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: "I mean, how is your injury? I fought with Han Yinyue before, and the injury was not light, right? Don't stand up." ”
Bai Juan said expressionlessly: "It doesn't matter, it's just a small injury." ”
While speaking, the two of them invariably looked up at the blood-red slanting sun together, the sky was getting darker and darker, and a large area of burning clouds seemed to be inlaid with a layer of gold edges, but this layer of gold edges was gradually dimming, and then the two of them lowered their heads at the same time, you look at me, I look at you, look at each other, and sigh in unison.
There happened to be a pedestrian passing by, because of the raw face, he couldn't help but glance at the two of them, Li Xuandu simply leaned against the wall, put his arms around his chest, and asked, "Why is Madam sighing?"
Bai Juan didn't care about this anymore: "That...... Why are you sighing in Zifu?"
Li Xuandu said: "The road ahead is confused, I don't know where to go, I don't know when it will end." ”
He looked at Bai Juan and asked, "What about you?"
Bai Juan said: "I don't know why I'm sighing, but when I saw you sighing, I suddenly wanted to sigh too." ”
Li Xuandu smiled dumbly at this answer.
For some reason, at this moment, he felt that his heart had never been so calm and peaceful.
When Qin Daofang walked out of the hospital hall on crutches, he saw such a scene, two young men and women leaning against the wall side by side, looking at the last remnant sun between heaven and earth together, both of them had a faint smile on their faces.
Qin Daofang didn't bother with this picture, and after signaling that Lao Langzhong didn't have to send him off, he also looked up at the remnant sun.
