That Person In That River and Lake - Chapter 556

  Chapter 556 Lost as always

The moonlight swayed the white screen, and the breeze picked up the white clothes. Gu Qingci stepped out step by step with his hands behind his back. Even in the night sky, it stretched like a ladder to the crescent moon. It’s just a pity that there is no such thing as in the legend. The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet on the magpie bridge.

Gu Qing walked away on the moon, as if an immortal returned by the wind, leaving Liao Zhiyuan standing on the roof in admiration. For him who is far from innate, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a fairy. , He couldn’t help but yearn for it.

   After going seven or eight miles, Gu Qingci fell slowly.

  Falling to the ground, Gu Qingci couldn’t help frowning and looked around in a daze.

  Although he didn’t want to admit it, he had to face it. He seemed to be lost again. This wasn’t the first time, nor would it be the last time.

   Slowly walking along the official road, Gu Qingci suddenly remembered the first time when he passed by Qingzhou that year. At that time, a junior sister in Qixiufang once joked with him, saying that the seven mysteries of the world should add another road idiot.

   Standing and thinking about it, it seems that I was right.

  Even now that he has become a grandmaster, he is still no match for this fate that is easy to get lost.

  After walking for a long time, but there were no people around, Gu Qingci sighed, jumped slightly, jumped onto a big tree, sat on the branch, and slowly closed his eyes.

After a long while, he opened his eyes again, sighing a little. The ancients said, “It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality”. , now, wherever you go, there are subordinate arrangements. After you get used to it, you can’t adapt to the previous living conditions.

  In the dead of night, there are occasional insects chirping twice, which adds to the tranquility of the night. Looking at the bright moon, I can’t help but think of people in the distance.

  …

On a hill far away from Tingyun Villa, a bonfire was burning. An old man with a sack on his shoulder was poking the bonfire with a wooden stick. On a stone beside him, there was an immortal The Taoist sat cross-legged, and on the other side, on the top of the mountain, a woman wearing a veil stood facing the wind with a graceful figure.

  The faint moonlight fell on the top of the mountain. There were no trees on the top of the mountain, and there were very few bushes. There were only a few solitary stones. The three of them seemed to be frozen, waiting quietly for the passage of time.

In the middle of the night, the name of a night owl came out, which was a little creepy. The woman standing on the top of the mountain seemed to have just woken up from a deep sleep, and she turned around slowly. Her body was as soft as a water snake, full of charm, and she walked towards the campfire. Also wearing a charm, said: “Zhu Xiucai, didn’t you Gu Qingci pass by here? It’s almost dawn, are you here on purpose to amuse my old lady?”

The woman opened her mouth, obviously very rude, but with a coquettish attitude, Zhu Xiucai didn’t speak, but the old Taoist sitting on the stone couldn’t help frowning, and said: “You Ji, an old woman who is already over a hundred years old, Can you put away your little daughter’s attitude, it’s just disgusting people’s eyes.”

“Hmph,” You Ji snorted coldly, and she seemed to be a different person in an instant, very pungent, and said viciously: “Old Niubi, I saw you having fun in the brothel a few days ago, don’t you just like this tune?” ? And you ordered three girls by yourself, I’m afraid your old waist is gone!”

The old Taoist suddenly opened his eyes, his face twitched violently, and said: “I saw those girls lonely, old and soft-hearted, so I went to comfort them, you know a fart, thinking that everyone is as vulgar as you, Didn’t you also hook up with a few bad guys? Oh, it’s enough to be your great-grandson, and I’m ashamed to have a love brother, so I’m not ashamed!”

  You Ji was furious all of a sudden, a dagger poked out from her sleeve, her killing intent fluctuated, and she said coldly, “Niubi, are you going to fight to the death with me?”

“Hmph,” the old Taoist waved his hand slightly, and a Taoist sword appeared in his hand, and said, “You Ji, you think I’m afraid of you. If it weren’t for you, the poor Taoist wouldn’t have gone to the North Desert to hide in Tibet for so many years.” , and even cultivated such a white-eyed wolf for Bei Mo, if it wasn’t for you, my Dao heart would not be covered with dust, why bother a hundred years and still not become a fairy of the world!”

“Hehe,” You Ji sarcastically said, “Who are you to blame for your blindness? Originally, you wanted to train a disciple for your Longhu Mountain, but in the end, you raised a white-eyed wolf. Not only did you not return to your Longhu Mountain, but you went to the North Is it ironic that Mo became a national teacher and used your inheritance from Longhu Mountain to set up Jixia Academy?”

The old Taoist said coldly: “If it weren’t for you, would I have found a white-eyed wolf in desperation to leave the inheritance? Over the years, every time Jixia Academy made a move against the Central Plains, my Dao heart was broken once, standing It’s almost shattered into dregs, and it’s all your fault!”

“Blame me,” You Ji said angrily, “If I hadn’t pulled you for the last time, you would have died a long time ago. Besides, aren’t you amazing? You can just kill your white-eyed wolf apprentice, maybe you If you break it and then stand up, you will directly become a fairy in the world of mortals!”

  The corner of the old Taoist’s mouth twitched. If he could kill the white-eyed wolf who has now become Beimo’s national teacher, would he still be arguing with this dead old woman here?

Seeing that the two of them were about to pinch each other, Zhu Xiucai couldn’t pretend not to notice and continued to sit, stood up, and said with a smile: “Senior Wuchen, Senior Youji, it’s been so many years, why both of you are so stubborn Yu Huai, now our last chance to become a fairy is right in front of us, but don’t miss the chance because of impulsiveness. Gu Qingci’s status is extraordinary, and it is not easy to find such a chance for him to travel alone. If you fail once, you may not have a chance in the future.”

If it was at this time, people who knew Zhu Xiucai would be shocked when they heard Zhu Xiucai addressing these two. In this era, there are still people who call Zhu Xiucai a senior. No one would believe it even if they were killed.

   “Humph!” “Humph!”

  Taoist Wuchen and You Ji stared at each other, with their backs facing each other, without squinting.

   “I said Zhu Xiucai,” You Ji turned her head and said, “Didn’t you say that Gu Qingci must pass by here tonight? It’s already this hour, why hasn’t he come yet? You won’t be really happy with us, will you?”

Zhu Xiucai frowned, shook his head, and said: “No, I saw Gu Qingci leaving Tingyun Villa, but although Gu Qingci is young, his martial arts are unrivaled in the world, I dare not get too close, and , to go to Langya Mountain, this is the only way to go, there is no way he will not come, could it be… the news that we are going to besiege him has leaked?”

“impossible!”

   Taoist Wuchen said: “Let’s not say that only the three of us know about it, but who else in the world knows that You Ji and I are still alive?”
