Rescuing the Beautiful and Strong yet Miserable Second Lead Character - Chapter 129
After Ling Qingxiao said these words, she was stunned.
Why would he do such an unconventional thing? In the world, he is not the only one who has a good memory, and he is not the only one who reads books. How can he feel a sense of comparison?
In the past, there was no shortage of people touting their nephews in front of Ling Qingxiao, he just laughed, but this time, he actually gave birth to an inexplicable desire to win. What does he want to prove?
When Luo Han mentioned Daming City, he suddenly remembered the years she and Ling Qingxiao traveled, so he didn’t notice the changes in the people around him. Luo Han was a little bit nostalgic, saying: “He is the only person I know who can deserve this kind of praise as a youth. He may be a thousand years old or a thousand and five hundred years old, depending on which standard he is. After I came here, I met a lot of people, some were slanderous, insidious and cunning, and some were righteous and virtuous, but among all of them, the only thing I admired was him.”
Ling Qingxiao was still self-reflection, and now hearing Luo Han’s words, his mentality is out of balance again. Young and promising, sincerely admired, and still the only one.
Ling Qingxiao didn’t want to talk at all, but Luo Han opened the chatterbox and kept saying: “In the beginning, I suspected him, guarded him, and deliberately tied him with an unreasonable agreement. But he has never broken his faith. I have been well protected. He did not hesitate to stand in front of me several times in distress. In all fairness, I may not be able to replace it with me in the same situation. But he can. I have been thinking that in this life, Apart from him, I am afraid that no one will do this to me again.”
Ling Qingxiao was silent after listening. Luo Han said that she couldn’t do it, but Ling Qingxiao looked at it from the perspective of a bystander these days and thinks she can too. Everyone has different ways of expressing their feelings. Love does not necessarily have to be a life or death.
Ling Qingxiao could feel her feelings for another person like a trickle, endless. Her feelings are like water, gentle and firm, and may seem too plain, not as surging as the other’s surging, but only this kind of love is confident and healthy.
If both of them are fierce, they won’t go long.
Ling Qingxiao paused for a long time, feeling that what she had just thought was very ridiculous. What if he is vying for a higher one? In her heart, she is naturally good at everything.
Ling Qingxiao suddenly envied that person. He didn’t know who this person was, but it was so good to be trusted and expected by Luo Han.
When Luo Han talked about that person, his brows were flying and his eyes were sparkling. Looking back on her life, Ling Qingxiao couldn’t think of anyone who was looking forward to him, and who cared about his food and clothing.
Evaluated by secular standards, his life is probably a life of Qingyun’s success and success. However, his father did not like him when he was born, and his mother was unwilling to recognize him after his identity was revealed. Teacher, no one really cares about him. He is just a symbol to others.
He was a model student when he was studying, and a model minister after becoming an official. After he became a throne, he would continue to play a model emperor. It is really sad to only survive in the world with “goodness”.
Ling Qingxiao remained speechless. At the door, Ling Qingxiao stopped and said, “Today you have a good rest. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the Bliss Tower.”
“Huh?” Luo Han was surprised, “So fast?”
“There is no need to delay time.” Ling Qingxiao said lightly, “If the matter of ancient forbidden art is resolved as soon as possible, you can also go back to your fiance as soon as possible. He may be worried if he can’t find you for so long.”
Luo Han was surprised. Of course she wanted to go back quickly, but she didn’t expect Ling Qingxiao to take the initiative. Luo Han actually wanted to tell him that the person she wanted to find was originally him. However, Luo Han traveled through the scene of the Fairy Demon battle, and then fell back to the scene of the battle. She didn’t know how to define the present, the past and the future. If she rashly told Ling Qingxiao the truth, she would probably violate the precepts of cause and effect.
At that time, the law of time and space affects layer by layer, triggering the butterfly effect, and it is very likely that the final effect will be completely different. Luo Han’s lips moved, but in the end he didn’t say anything, and smiled to comfort him: “Thank you. Don’t worry, in the future, there will be someone next to you, willing to accompany you to live and die together for the rest of your life.”
Ling Qingxiao just smiled and said, “Thank you.”
In fact, he didn’t believe it.
Ling Qingxiao returned to her house and continued to deal with the pile of government affairs. It may be the reason why Ling Qingxiao was halfway through writing recently, and gradually felt tired.
He stretched his hand against his eyebrows, trying to refresh himself with a cup of tea. When the tea was brought to his lips, he realized that it had been replaced with a soothing fairy dew.
The guards of the heavenly palace didn’t have the guts, and it was Luo Han who dared to make this decision.
Ling Qingxiao held the cup in her hand, her face becoming more and more calm. The guards listened too much to Luo Han’s words, he used things for thousands of years, and she asked them to replace them, and they really did. But Ling Qingxiao knew that the guards could not be blamed for their actions, they would do it, not because of his attitude.
Ling Qingxiao was too indulgent to Luo Han, and it was beyond common sense. The people below speculate on his mind, and naturally they will make their own opinions and exchange his expenses.
Ling Qingxiao was suddenly at a loss. He was not an easy person to approach. On the contrary, he was extremely defensive against people. Emperor Ju is a lonely family member. He has been an emperor for more than four thousand years, and he has been unable to be friends with anyone anymore. But Luo Han was like a light, breaking into his world unreasonably, arbitrarily stirring up chaos inside.
Why is Luo Han not afraid of him? Why can’t he be so cruel to Luo Han?
There were mixed thoughts, Ling Qingxiao couldn’t understand it, so she could only temporarily pass it away and concentrate on business. He had put down the cup in his hand, but he picked it up again and took a sip.
The entrance is light and sweet, with a slight tea fragrance, which is in line with his taste.
Ling Qingxiao was stunned, and a woman’s ridicule sounded in her ears: “You don’t eat sweets, sours, bitterness, or spicy, so what exactly do you eat? It’s really the taste of the elderly, right?”
Who is this?
I don’t know if it was the reason for drinking Xianlu, Ling Qingxiao only approved two copies and fell asleep at the table inexplicably. He dreamed of those fragments again, and this time, the details were more detailed than before.
He was standing in a lively city with carnival crowds on both sides, everyone with a mask on their faces. He looked down, and there was a woman standing beside him with hairy ears on his head. He couldn’t help but stretched out his hand and squeezed.
The woman looked up, her eyes were like beads, and the lights on both sides reflected in her eyes, like a dream.
The scene changed again, this time, I went back to the small pavilion after the snow last time. This time the scene was more delicate. He saw with his own eyes the hand of someone he was holding, and transformed a cloud of ink into the appearance of a swallowing beast. Then, he outlined the sky, lake, dead branches, and white snow.
A woman asked in his ear: “If I don’t want to get married, I want to indulge and be free for a lifetime?”
Ling Qingxiao could feel that she was reluctant, but she still reluctantly promised: “Yes.”
The woman smiled and asked: “Then I will leave Apocalypse and go to other time and space…”
The dream suddenly shattered, and a wave of violence erupted like a bank burst. Ling Qingxiao woke up suddenly and found that the cup around him had been shattered to pieces by his spiritual power, and the doors, windows, bookshelves, and screens were all covered with sharp ice thorns.
Ling Qingxiao froze for a moment, waved, and dissolved all the ice. He was secretly surprised, except that he had just stepped into the path of cultivation, and he hadn’t learned to dispose of the cold in his body. After that, he had never been unable to control the aura. How could he lose control to such an extent?
His spiritual power only exploded for a moment, and he was immediately taken back. The clouds outside were moved by Ling Qingxiao’s spiritual power, and it rained heavily.
The guard ran over under the sound of rain and nervously asked outside the door: “Your Majesty, what’s the matter?”
“Nothing.” Ling Qingxiao said lightly, “The deity has just practiced the exercises, and he forgot the location for a while.”
The guards heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that Ling Qingxiao was okay. Ling Qingxiao thought of something and asked: “Where is she?”
The personal guards don’t need to think about it to know who the majesty wants to ask: “Miss Luo is in her house, and her subordinates have never seen Miss Luo come out.”
Ling Qingxiao knew that there would be nothing wrong, but still wanted to go and take a look. He stood up, pushed the door, and said to the soldiers who bowed their heads respectfully outside: “The deity is all right here. Go down.”
“Yes.”
He sent the soldiers away and walked to Luo Han’s house without stopping. The sound of the rain was majestic and the cold wind blew on his face, Ling Qingxiao’s thoughts became more and more clear.
I didn’t feel it in the dream just now, and now I was pulling away, Ling Qingxiao recognized it easily. The first scene was in the Great Monster Festival in Daming City, and the second was in Lingjiang City.
Luo Han only mentioned Daming City and Lingjiang City not long ago, and then he saw these two places in his dream. Is this really just a coincidence?
When Ling Qingxiao approached, she found that the lights in Luo Han’s house were on, but the windows were not closed. Ling Qingxiao stood outside the window and saw that she fell asleep on the desk. The wind pulled in from the window and crackled the paper pages on the table. Raindrops even fell on her sleeves.
Ling Qingxiao sighed, why did he fall asleep on the table? I am not afraid of catching cold in such a heavy rain.
Ling Qingxiao didn’t open the door, but passed the window wall and stopped beside Luo Han. He originally wanted to move Luo Han to the bed, but when he lowered his head, he stopped abruptly.
Luo Han was pressing a picture scroll under his sleeve, and she could see that she was looking at the picture before she fell asleep. The ink marks on the painting are faint, and the world is white. A round black sheep is playing in the water. By the side of the pavilion, a man and a woman are sitting side by side. The clothes are intertwined. Although the face is not outlined, it can be seen. Come out, all are beautiful.
Ling Qingxiao was completely stunned. Such a scene, this weather, these furnishings…
Isn’t it the picture he had just dreamed of?
He dreamed that he was holding someone’s hand to paint. Now, a painting with exactly the same scene appeared in Luo Han’s hands. This shows what?
Ling Qingxiao flicked Luo Han’s sleeves, wanting to look more carefully. As soon as he moved, Luo Han moved his head, as if he was about to wake up.
Ling Qingxiao closed her hands, and in a hurry, her long sleeve touched something and was swept off the table.
Ling Qingxiao quickly supported it with spiritual power. After he caught it, he realized that it was a photo-taking stone. He was about to put the photo-taking stone back in place. Luo Han was already awake at this time. Ling Qingxiao paused with her fingers, and her long sleeves dropped, covering things instantly.
Luo Han didn’t know why she fell asleep. She felt that there seemed to be movement around her, and she looked up blankly, and saw Ling Qingxiao. She looked at Ling Qingxiao in a daze for a long time, unable to tell who it was for a while.
Ling Qingxiao originally wanted to hand over the photo-taking stone to Luo Han, but he explained that he accidentally knocked it over. But when he met Luo Han’s eyes, he suddenly hesitated.
Who is Luo Han looking at now? Who is the fiance in her mouth?
Ling Qingxiao’s fingers shrank, and a despicable idea that he had never had before came up in his heart. When Luo Han sleeps, he puts the photo-taking stone by his side, which shows that there are images that are very important to her. Wouldn’t he be able to see the face of her fiancé if he opened the shadow stone?
After Ling Qingxiao hesitated for a moment, Luo Han had already awakened from the chaos that had just woke up. She pressed her sleeves on the table, naturally blocking the picture, and quickly put away the scroll with her other hand: “Your Majesty, why are you here?”
How could Ling Qingxiao fail to see that Luo Han was covering up. She didn’t want him to see the scene on the scroll.
Ling Qingxiao took a fixed look at Luo Han, and a faint light flashed in his hand. After the light passed, the photo-taking stone on the palm of his hand disappeared. Ling Qingxiao took a step back calmly, as if he hadn’t noticed the scroll on the desktop, and said, “It was raining heavily outside. I saw you fell asleep with the window open. I want to remind you. What are you looking at and why did you fall asleep? ?”
Luo Han smiled, dare to tell the truth, and said vaguely: “It’s nothing, just read the book. Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”
Ling Qingxiao had been paying attention to Luo Han’s expression. He found that Luo Han was obviously avoiding something, as if he didn’t want to let him know something without telling him.
Ling Qingxiao squinted her eyes, smiled in an instant, and said to Luo Han, “That’s good. It’s getting late, so you can rest. Remember to close the window.”
Luo Han nodded and watched Ling Qingxiao leave. After he left, Luo Han breathed a long sigh of relief and rubbed his eyebrows with lingering fear: “Why did I fall asleep? Fortunately, I woke up quickly and he didn’t notice it.”
She looked at the corner of the table and gradually frowned, always feeling as if something was missing: “Is there nothing here? I remember it seemed to have taken something out before going to bed.”
·
Ling Qingxiao returned to the house. He watched the memorials piled up on the case, and suddenly he no longer had any patience to handle official duties.
It is rare for him to be so impetuous. Ling Qingxiao walked a few steps in the room, forcibly to calm down. He stood by the window, looking motionless at the majestic rain curtain outside, letting the rain splash on his sleeves.
He suddenly gave birth to an extremely absurd idea. Inexplicable memory fragments, highly coincidental picture scrolls, Luo Han is a person with early fame and strong memory…
Is that person him?
Ling Qingxiao knew that now he only needs to open the photo-taking stone to know all the answers. But he looked at the stone in his hand and couldn’t make the next step for a long time.
Not a moral constraint. For an emperor, the sense of morality is more than a thing. What really stopped him was the vague resistance in his heart.
What if it is not what he should do after opening it, but what should he do? If it’s not him, it’s that he is affectionate. If it were him… Luo Han would leave after all.
This is an unsolvable game. In contrast, it may be easier to know nothing.
Ling Qingxiao stood in the wind for a long time, and finally returned the photo-taking stone to the storage space intact.
·
The next day, Luo Han put on the curtain and went to the Bliss Tower to buy news.
The assassination business in Wuyou City is divided into two parts: Bliss Tower and Wuyou Pavilion. Bliss Tower is responsible for buying and selling news, receiving orders and placing orders, while Wuyou Pavilion is all a killer.
Wuyoucheng claims that as long as the price is affordable, there is no one they can’t kill in the world. From the outside, the Bliss Tower looked like an ordinary restaurant, with a soft tent, singing and dancing, but after entering, Luo Han immediately knew that it was not a restaurant.
The beautiful dancer leaned against the door and smiled, but a long sharp knife was tied behind her waist. Even a young man in the hall in the building is full of calluses at the tiger’s mouth.
Luo Han came to such a place for the first time, and as soon as he walked in, he felt many eyes swept towards them. She paused slightly and raised her hand to straighten the fence above her head.
Ling Qingxiao noticed Luo Han’s movements and said, “If you don’t like it, I will send you back.”
Luo Han shook his head and said, “No. Why are they looking at us?”
Ling Qingxiao snorted slightly and said, “Probably he is looking at me.”
Luo Han didn’t understand at first, she walked through the gatehouse, and when she looked up, she saw a gorgeous light screen hanging at the top of the hall. The name at the top is Ling Qingxiao, followed by a long string of numbers.
Luo Han was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted: “What is this?”
“As you can see.” Ling Qingxiao said, “Reward list.”
“That…” Luo Han stammered, and pointed to the top name in surprise, “Then you are the first?”
“Yes.” Ling Qingxiao was accustomed to it, and said, “Worry-free City accepts any business. There are more people in the Six Realms who want to kill me than those who want to kill Demon Venerable.”
Luo Han was shocked. She understood why the officials of Sanqingtian were so distressed when they left the temple. Ling Qingxiao turned out to be the first place in the reward list of Wuyou City and second on the fault wall. In this way, he dared to come to Wuyou City alone, Luo Han didn’t know what to say about him.
Luo Han was sluggish for a long time, and slowly came back to his senses: “No wonder, when we walked in just now, so many people turned back…”
Dare to love, they see a huge bounty?
Ling Qingxiao turned a blind eye to the surrounding sight. He took Luo Han upstairs. As soon as they reached the top of the stairs, the housekeeper of the Bliss Tower greeted him.
Seeing that it was Ling Qingxiao, the housekeeper smiled eagerly: “It turned out to be His Majesty the Emperor, a rare guest, really a rare guest. This is…”
As he said, he looked towards Luo Han. It was strange that the Heavenly Emperor, who was notoriously unfamiliar in the Six Realms, was accompanied by a woman who was wearing a curtain. Ling Qingxiao’s protection of people is so comprehensive that people have to think about it.
What is the identity of this woman?
Ling Qingxiao held out his hand and stopped Luo Han behind him. The butler was forced to retreat by Ling Qingxiao’s secret coercion. He smiled, retracted his gaze, and stepped aside: “His Majesty the Emperor is here to bring the United States. It is not an honor for the Bliss Tower. Your Majesty, please come with me.”
Ling Qingxiao glanced at the housekeeper indifferently, took back the pressure, and said to Luo Han, “Let’s go.”
The two of them entered the house. The big customers all have special private rooms. The private rooms are luxuriously decorated and golden everywhere. The big butler puts people on the tea and graciously signaled, “Your Majesty, please sit down.”
“No, the deity only has one sentence, and you can leave after speaking.” Ling Qingxiao said indifferently.
“It turned out to be about Demon Venerable.” The butler smiled on his face, his eyes flashed sharply, “The news of Demon Venerable, the asking price is not low.”
Ling Qingxiao didn’t care, and said casually: “It’s okay. As long as you get the real news, you can quote the price at will.”
“His Majesty God is really refreshing!” The butler was still smiling just now, and suddenly as if taking off his mask, he attacked Ling Qingxiao without warning, “It’s just that our line of business pays attention to first-come, first-come. Before that, some people have paid high prices to buy it. Killed you!”
The butler said that when he changed his face, he changed his face, and he did not hesitate to be still in the Bliss Tower. Luo Han immediately gathered aura in his hands. Before she could move, Ling Qingxiao waved his sleeves, punched the housekeeper out of the private room with a palm, smashed several walls, and finally broke the railings and turned downstairs.
A person suddenly fell upstairs, and there was a sudden uproar in the hall. Immediately someone stepped forward to check for his breath. After a while, this person looked up and said, “The housekeeper has died of anger.”
A living person died in front of his eyes, but no matter whether it was the singer holding a pipa in the hall or the guests drinking and having fun on both sides, none of them showed abnormality. Ling Qingxiao walked slowly to the corridor on the second floor with her hands behind her back, stopped in front of the broken railing, and asked, “City Lord Worry-Free, now, can you negotiate a price with the deity.”
There was silence in the building for a while, and a woman with a mask walked out across the third floor and said, “Worry-free City opens the door to do business, and the higher the price is. The Emperor wants to support our business in Worry-Free City, of course.”
Luo Han made an attack in his hands, and before she could take action, the person who attacked was dead. She withdrew the magic power silently and followed Ling Qingxiao behind.
The one on the third floor opposite, presumably was the Worry-Free City Lord who had never seen the end at the sight of the dragon. But the strange thing is that he looks like a woman, but when he listens to his voice, he is clearly a man.
Is this person a man or a woman?
Luo Han kept careful attention in the following discussions, but until she walked out of the Bliss Tower, she didn’t figure out the gender of the other party.
The whereabouts of the demon is not easy to organize, even in Wuyou City, it takes a while to inquire. City Master Wuyou and Ling Qingxiao confirmed the delivery time. After the two negotiated the details, Ling Qingxiao paid half of the deposit on the spot.
When the group of them left the Bliss Tower, Luo Han sighed sincerely: “Worry-free City’s style of doing things… really extraordinary.”
The butler attacked without saying a word, and Ling Qingxiao also directly killed the person. A dead person fell from upstairs. As a result, everyone in Wuyou City was like a okay person. They should eat and drink. Even the city owner of Wuyou City did not show the slightest sorrow.
Worry-free City is really unique.
Ling Qingxiao seemed to have expected it a long time ago. He said, “This is the most troublesome part of Wuyou City. Every time I come, they have to wait for me to do something before they are willing to stop. I have told them long ago that they can’t kill me, but unfortunately they always Some people don’t believe it.”
Luo Han was silent. Ling Qingxiao walked for a long time, and seeing Luo Han not speaking, he glanced back at her in surprise: “What’s the matter?”
“I suddenly found out that I didn’t seem to have asked you about your experience over the years.” Luo Han said slowly, “I said a lot about my travels with him, but I never asked you about it. These years, you have lived well. Okay?”
Ling Qingxiao was really surprised. He was used to people asking him for help, asking him, asking him for advice, but he had never heard anyone ask him how you have been all these years.
Ling Qingxiao was in a daze, he immediately returned to his senses, still calmly saying: “As the emperor of heaven, naturally everything is fine.”
Luo Han didn’t believe a word of this. She looked at him persistently and said, “I don’t believe it.”
“Follow you.” Ling Qingxiao responded indifferently, and suddenly looked at Luo Han, with a sharp edge of scrutiny hidden in his eyes, “You have another fiance, why are you concerned about the deity?”
Luo Han was choked. She didn’t expect Ling Qingxiao to say such things. She paused for a moment and sorted out her mentality before saying: “First, it’s not the fiancé. Second, out of alliance morality, I show concern for my partners, isn’t it OK? ?”
Ling Qingxiao didn’t know why, and focused on the previous sentence: “Not my fiancé?”
“That’s right.” Luo Han gave him a fair look and said, “Who told you that I agreed?”
Ling Qingxiao didn’t know what to say for a while, and after a long time, Luo Han didn’t even agree.
Such a waste.
Luo Han said leisurely and unhurriedly: “And, didn’t you remind me that I am still young and should focus on reading and don’t rush to get married, so as not to meet a liar. I think your suggestion is very pertinent. And decided to do what you said.”
Ling Qingxiao was completely speechless. With an unspeakable mind, he asked unconsciously: “Do I know that person?”
“Who?”
“The person you like.”
