Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 896 Deadline
In the cold wind, Dongfang Yi stared at Li Ji's back, and the old man narrowed his cloudy eyes slightly.Li Ji felt something was wrong and turned his head, "Father, what's wrong..."

Before he could finish asking, Dongfang Yi pulled up his coat, "No problem, put on your clothes quickly, don't you think it's cold even as a water mage?"

Li Ji looked at the old man in old clothes in the autumn night and smiled wryly, but he didn't reply, he just put on his clothes obediently, and paused when he thought of something.

"What? Are your hands frozen?" Dongfang Yi asked.

"No, it's nothing," Li Ji fastened his clothes, looked up and found Dongfang Yi sizing him up with a strange expression.

"Father?" He asked suspiciously, "Is there any problem with my back? Or meridians..."

"No, there's nothing wrong with it." Dongfang Yi looked at him, "The person who sealed your acupoint is very skilled."

The problem is that the craftsmanship is too good.

"Who did you find in the end to seal the cave for you?" Dongfang Yi turned around and packed the things on the altar, pretending to be casual and asked.

"Yes..." Li Ji was about to step forward to help, but when he heard the words, he stopped and swallowed the words, "Father, don't ask me about that."

That girl was already eye-catching enough, and he didn't want her to attract the attention of another son of God.

"What? Are you still angry that the old man didn't agree to seal the acupuncture point for you?" Dongfang Yi sighed, "Okay, I know you always protect your friends, so you can always tell if it's male or female, right?"

Li Ji was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he looked at the old man who turned around with a triumphant smile on his lips, his heart broke.
Li Ji's forehead was throbbing with veins.

This old wretch set him up again!

Those who can seal acupoints for practitioners can only be practitioners, and they must be practitioners with a high level of cultivation, and most practitioners in this world are men.

The moment he hesitated on this question, he exposed the woman's identity.

Dong Wu Guoshi is such a fine person, Dongfang Yi could see Li Ji's remorse through the mask, walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, "Boy, you can do it, it's actually a girl."

Li Ji took a deep breath. People in the practice world probably would never have imagined that the Soochow National Master, who usually gave people the impression of an accomplished monk, had such an old and disrespectful appearance in private.

"Since foster father guessed who it was, why bother to lie to me?" Li Ji could only sigh.

"Have I guessed who it is?" Dongfang Yi smiled and said, "I haven't guessed yet! Let me guess, according to your realm, did you sell your appearance to find the old man Xu's daughter?"

With a bang, Li Ji heard the veins on his forehead jumping more joyfully.

"Okay, no kidding, if you really go to Xu Bingqing, you probably won't be able to come back at this point," Dongfang Yi quickly changed his words before Li Ji couldn't help drawing his sword to kill his father. The old man's eyes darkened, "This is the The handwriting of the former Qin princess?"

Li Ji's eyes paused, and he remained silent.

In the eyes of Dongfang Yi, it is equivalent to default.Looking at the indifferent adoptive son in the eyes of outsiders, he is really meticulous and sighed, "You don't have to be afraid of exposing her, since the princess stepped into Soochow, she has been under public criticism. At the city gate Do you think I can't see what happened in the attachment?"

"There are also those rumors from Southern Chu that the letter of credence that you proposed for the king of Dongling County was brought to His Majesty by the old man, what are you trying to hide now?" Dongfang Yi said indifferently.

Li Ji moved his fingers under his sleeve, "She helped me, so I naturally want to protect her."

"Is it just for maintenance?" Dongfang Yi squinted at him, then turned around and said while placing the sacrificial vessel, "You still have such a clear distinction between love and hate."

Dongfang Yi's words meant something, and Li Ji walked up to him, "Father...still blaming me?"

"I'm such an old man, I don't ask for anything from you, why should I blame you," the white-haired old man said lightly, "Resentment and hatred, love parting, and nothing you can ask for will only make people more and more miserable." bitter."

"But I have to ask for it," Li Ji smiled wryly, "Father, I know exactly what I want."

"Really," Dongfang Yi didn't really like to lie to others, he put down the sacrificial vessel in his hand with a bang, looked at the taller boy beside him and shouted loudly, "But you know, eight years, She's gone!"

She is no longer here.

This sound was like the sound of a morning bell, breaking Li Ji's mind, and he could only feel the buzzing in his ears.

Li Ji knew that this was a blow from the Buddhist family, but he didn't expect that Dongfang Yi would use this trick against him at this time.

"Master, you..." Li Ji changed his title, looked at the angry old man in front of him and murmured, "I..."

"It's been eight years, you should let it go," Dongfang Yi quietly looked at the persevering young man in front of her, and thought with a sigh in her heart, "Or, you have to let it go."

"The old man and you don't have much time," Dongfang Yi said lightly.

A chill rose in Li Ji's heart, he fixedly looked at the old man whose face was much older than when he left last time.

"Eight years ago, this old man picked you up from the land of our ancestors. You were full of revenge and empty inside. You survived only with this only belief, so this old man didn't stop you." Dongfang Yi stared at him deeply, " But the old man told you after you regained consciousness that the Shao Si Ming that the old man knew did not kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Li Ji gritted his teeth, "But Master, you also said that you have no evidence, let alone why my memory is wrong."

"That's right, the old man's trust came out of nowhere, it's normal for you not to understand," Dongfang Yi said, "But the female cultivator you mentioned who took care of you, didn't you never find out where she came from?"

Li Ji closed his eyes. With the growth of realm and experience, after so many years of searching, he actually gradually discovered that there were many strange things about his experience in the cloud forest.

But his revenge is not purely for killing people.

"It's not that I don't believe my adoptive father's words, I just want the truth," Li Ji stroked his mask on his face, "I'm looking for that person to ask her clearly."

Ask why he took his sister away, why he left his life alone, and what grievances there are between them, he will confirm it clearly instead of killing indiscriminately.

He just wants to find her now.

However, thinking of this, Li Ji suddenly froze.

In the former Qin Dynasty, he still couldn't control his killing intent because of the turbulent emotions in his heart, but now he suddenly found that if the legendary Shao Si Ming really appeared in front of him, he seemed to be able to control himself Not the first time to pounce on the sword piercing the heart.

Dongfang Yi's eyes deepened, and she also noticed the change in the adoptive son in front of her.

And what changed him?
"This trip, I got to know female cultivators a little better," Li Ji calmed down and said calmly.

Dongfang Yi's eyes darkened slightly, it was the former Qin princess who changed this child.

"But female cultivators are almost impossible to appear now. Even if they are still alive, most of them in the past are secluded from the world." Dongfang Yi looked at Li Ji and said indifferently, "You have been looking for eight years, you should know that you are looking for a needle in a haystack. You can't find it." of."

"But I will keep looking for it," Li Ji said quietly.

"The old man said that eight years is already the limit," Dongfang Yi said indifferently, "Your Majesty will not tolerate it any longer."

Li Ji's eyes froze.

"You obviously have the aptitude to become a heavenly rank, but you are in exile, and you have rejected His Majesty's canonization eight times. These old men used to be able to help you stop it, but now, you can't." Dongfang Yi looked at Li Ji's eyes. Peaceful, "Soochow needs someone to support it after all."

Under the gentle eyes of the old man, Li Ji seemed to be in an ice cellar, "Master, don't you..."

"You guessed it," the old man smiled softly, and there was a hint of freedom in his kind smile.

"Ji'er, listen carefully," Dongfang Yi looked at him and said every word.

"The old man's end is approaching, and he won't live long."

Standing on the top of a high mountain, the Son of God who stepped on the ground and bathed in the stars had his hands behind his back, but there was no trace of fear on his face for what was about to happen.

"Don't be afraid, in other words," Dongfang Yi said quietly, "my old bone is going to die."

　No one can describe death like this.

　　Eight gods, everyone is not simple.Here is a tribute to the decent-minded among them.

　　Dongfang Yi's phrase "She is no longer here" is exactly the same as a line in "Cross Me, Don't Cross Her", which makes me feel sad every time I hear it.This is actually Brother Ji's mood. He is really...already quite remarkable for surviving.

　　Love will never last, and Huiji will be hurt. When I wrote this, I found that it happened to be the two male characters with the most scenes in my writing. I felt a little emotional.

　　Of course, don’t worry everyone~ This article is HE, not a tragedy
