long night walk

Chapter 984
In the early morning of the next day, the sky was bright, the north wind was whistling and cold, the bed was warm, and it was the sweet time for Shu Ci to sleep soundly.

This is, there was a knock on the door.

Bai Lian sat in meditation in front of the wall, opened his eyes, and glanced at the sky outside the window.

It's still so early, and there are not many people on the road, who would come to visit early in the morning.

It's not intentional to disturb people's good dreams, or there is something urgent.

The knock on the door was not noisy, it seemed very polite and polite, but it kept going, without a break.

Zhengxiang's Shu Ci who was sleeping on the bed was indeed awakened.

Animals have a keen sense of hearing, and Shuci has disheveled hair and indifferent eyes: "Who wakes up early in the morning and makes people dream, is it because they are impatient?"

Bai Lian got up to open the door, but saw a familiar face.

She was dressed in clean white clothes, and her body was covered with the unique coldness of the early morning, like a trickling ancient spring, with a hint of coolness.

A pair of pupils that were as black as ink were also piercingly cool, as if they could read people's hearts.

Bai Lian looked at the woman outside the door in astonishment, but did not speak.

Su Jing's expression was as usual, and he said calmly: "You are Wen Hanwei's new disciple, Ji Xinian?"

Seeing that she didn't recognize him, Bai Lian breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I've seen Senior Sister Su Jing."

Su Jing pursed his lips, remained silent for a moment, and said, "The suzerain's wife will arrive at Shifang City in the afternoon, and she ordered all the disciples to go with her. You need to be prepared."

For some reason, her voice was three points louder than usual.

Shu Ci who was tossing and turning in the room really became more irritable.

Bailian nodded yes.

Su Jing didn't say much, after she finished delivering the message, she left cleanly and resolutely, leaving only the irritable and sleepless Shu Ci tossing and turning on the bed.

Bai Lian was trying to confuse Su Jing's reason for coming, if it was just to inform the suzerain's wife about her upcoming arrival.

Why should it be her turn to come and announce in person the majestic young master Taixuan.

At noon, when Li Banfen arrived at the inn, all Taixuan disciples had to solemnly greet him with discipleship.

After all, Afutu and Shu Ci belonged to the monster, so Bai Lian placed them in the inn.

Since he wants to act in Shifang City as Ji Xiannian, even if Li Bansheng doesn't want to have much interaction, he still needs to meet face to face.

Li Bansheng entered the city with his sword and came to the inn where he met, but he hadn't entered the inn yet.

Then I saw the figure in white who was waiting quietly and independently at the door of the inn.

Seeing this scene, Li Bansheng couldn't help but smile knowingly, and his eyes immediately became warm and gentle.

In the past 200 years, she and her daughter have never been close. Since childhood, Su Jing has been estranged from her close relatives due to physical reasons.

Ever since the accident happened 200 years ago, Li Bansheng knew that he owed her a lot, and the mother and daughter rarely had a heart-to-heart relationship.

Su Jing was used to being a loner, with a seemingly cold temperament, he acted insanely and stubbornly.

The knot in her heart was difficult to solve, whether it was towards her or towards Su Guanhai, she avoided her a lot. She was clearly a close relative, but she seemed like a stranger.

It seems that it would be good for Bai Lian to come back alive and reunite with Yin Baishuang, which is enough for her to walk out of the past with peace of mind.

If it wasn't for his sudden mood, Li Bansheng would not have believed that one day, he would be greeted by her in person.

With a smile on his face, Li Bansheng walked lightly, "Ah Jing, are you waiting for your mother?"

Su Jing turned his eyes to look over, nodded slightly to Li Bansheng, and said, "The disciples of Taixuan in Shifang City have arrived, if Auntie has instructions, please move to the second floor."

Although there are still heavy traces of politeness and alienation between the words.

But Li Bansheng didn't care, and the message on his face became more and more gentle.

After entering the inn, under the leadership of Su Jing, Li Bansheng asked her about her recent physical condition in a gentle voice while walking on the stairs leading to the second floor.

Suddenly, Li Bansheng's gentle words suddenly stopped.

In just a split second, the Tianling Gai was filled with endless ice and snow.

Her face was ghastly pale, and one leg that stepped up the steps suddenly became stiff and motionless, as if her ankle was suddenly strangled by an invisible ghost hand.

This accident happened so suddenly that even Su Jing couldn't help but stare at the past, and asked with fixed eyes, "Aniang?"

Li Bansheng seemed to be extremely uncomfortable, as if he was so angry that he was secretly hurt.

With an extremely ugly face, she slowly turned her head to look at Su Jing, the tenderness in her eyes was gone, and her voice almost came out through her teeth:
"Is that brat Bailian here too?!"

Su Jing was startled, as if he couldn't understand when his mother's spiritual sense became so sharp.

Before she could speak, the footsteps of a group of disciples could be heard on the second floor.

Taixuan's disciples came out of the guest room one after another, looked at the stairs and said respectfully: "Disciple sees Madam."

Li Bansheng recognized Bai Lian who was standing in the corner among the crowd at a glance, and he also called Ma'am along with the crowd.

Li Bansheng's eyes were bloodshot angrily, his teeth were clenched, and the veins on his forehead even bulged slightly.

She let out a deep and angry cry, her eyes were like cannibalism: "You!"

Seeing her so pointed eyes, Bai Lian was puzzled for a moment.

He hurriedly stood up, approached and bent down to salute: "The disciple of Taixuan Nine Classics, Ji Xinian, met the suzerain's wife."

Li Bansheng looked at Bai Li'an bitterly, feeling distressed.

At this moment, Bai Lian's face was disguised so skillfully, it was obvious that he deliberately concealed his identity.

Li Bansheng doesn't care about his life or death, but also cares about her family's Ah Jing's feelings.

Even if his heart is burning with anger, it is not good to reveal Bai Li'an's identity in full view.

She could only pretend to be ignorant of the truth, and said in a trembling voice: "Ji Xinian, it's a good name... good... good... Hanwei has a unique vision and accepted you as a good student for me, Taixuan. "

Seeing that her eyes were full of murderous intent, Bai Lian didn't know what he had done to offend her, and was about to speak.

At this time, a soft female voice came from outside the inn: "Dare to ask Taixuanzong, Ji Xinnian, Mr. Ji lived in this inn."

Everyone looked around after hearing the reputation, and saw a luxurious and noble gold and jade carriage standing outside the entrance of the inn, and beside the carriage stood two women dressed as disciples of the clan of Shifang City.

The one who spoke just now was one of them.

Li Bansheng frowned, looked at Bai Lian: "What's going on?"

How could the clan disciples of Shifang City find Bai Li'an?
Bai Lian was also very surprised. Before he could speak, one of the disciples outside the door spread out a picture album and compared them one by one in the inn.

Finally, his eyes fixed on Bai Lian's body, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.

She entered the inn very politely, saluted Bai Lian and said:

"Since Mr. Ji passed the city lord's test of choosing a son-in-law a few days ago, he is our third young lady's guest of honor.

Today is the day when Miss San entertains the nine young masters.

Now that the time has passed, the other eight young masters have all arrived. Why have you not seen Young Master Ji for so long, so I have been specially sent to welcome you into the city. "

Bai Lian was stunned.

Last night, 99 didn't tell him that today is the day when Fang Geyu entertains everyone.

Son-in-law test?

Li Bansheng's eyes widened, he looked at Bai Li'an in disbelief, his expression was a little excited and angry:
"You actually voted for Shifang City to choose your name?! Do you intend to marry the third lady of the Fang family?!"

He would rather marry an unruly and pampered yellow-haired girl than give her infatuated Ah Jing a chance!
Bai Lian didn't know why Li Bansheng was so excited.

He didn't know the Taixuanzong's sect rules, could it be said that Taixuanzong's disciples should not easily marry with foreigners?

In front of the two Shifang City clan disciples, Bai Lian naturally couldn't deny it, but just nodded.

Su Jing's expression gradually dimmed, and he didn't speak.

Li Bansheng gave his daughter a heartbroken look, as the head of a family.

She didn't want to get angry in public, so she just kept a dark face and said in a cold voice: "This is your own choice, then I can only do what you want."

Bai Lian didn't know that Fang Geyu was hosting a banquet today, but he only knew that he was late and didn't dare to delay any longer.

He followed the two women into the carriage and drove towards Tiange City.

Li Bansheng looked at the pale Su Jing with hatred.

"It's strange to be a mother, how could I be so honored today to have you in such a good mood to personally welcome me as a mother.

After all, your good mood is still inseparable from that person!Cocoon yourself!You are in a cocoon! "

Everyone couldn't understand why the suzerain's wife was so angry with the young suzerain, she was so angry that she could shake her sleeves and leave, as if her steps seemed a little shaky because of losing her mind.

The carriage under him was driving on the streets of Shifang City. There was light rain and blue flowers falling along the streets, the breeze was blowing, and the branches and twigs were swaying under the dewdrops.

The horse-drawn carriage passed the Zhuque Bridge, and Moshang was bustling. Under the red walls and green tiles, the light yellow vines were in full bloom. The spring breeze on both sides of the river was light and the catkins were light, and the fragrance of flowers was coming in bursts.

Known for its abundance, the majestic Tuchengchi in the ten directions is quite elegant.

Driven by the two women from the clan, this luxurious and noble carriage finally arrived outside the mansion of the Third Miss Fang in Shifang City.

When Bai Lian got off the carriage, he saw that there were many iron guards outside the mansion. The mansion was very large and spacious, which was very suitable for Fang Geyu's identity.

With the gate as the center, the two palace walls are extremely far-reaching, and the end cannot be seen at a glance from the left and right.

It looked more like a tall and vast city wall than a mansion wall.

The high walls of this mansion alone go straight into the clouds, and every brick on the wall reflects the texture and luster like scales and feathers.

Impressively, it is a high wall built with the scales of the divine beast unicorn and the feathered spirit entry device of Qingluan.

If an intruder climbs over the wall without authorization, he will definitely be attacked by the aura formation of the high wall.

Every brick and tile here is of great value and carefully designed.

Under the leadership of the two female disciples of the clan, Bai Lian walked through the jade path in the courtyard, and at the end, he could see a very large building tower.

Even at ten o'clock at noon, there were still three thousand bright lanterns hanging outside the corridor, and those lanterns were not ordinary lanterns.

The lampshade, which is like silk floating clouds, is polished to be extremely thin, which is different from the paper cloth lanterns of ordinary people.

Those lampshades had the texture of pearls and stones, and there were no lights in them.

The ones placed there are all night pearls the size of a human head that exude azure blue like the light of the seabed.

Bai Lian had seen the King's Nether Palace in the underworld, the Tiansheng Temple, the main peak of the Tianxi Sword Sect, the Empress Hall of the Zhongyou Dynasty, and the Zhaonan Hall of the Taixuanzong.

It is far less than one percent of the luxury and magnificence of this mansion tower.

Shifang City really lived up to the most famous and wealthy place in the Six Realms.

When the two clan women came under the tower, they dared not go any further.

He just told Bailian to only hold the red fish jade pendant token in his hand, and the journey would naturally be unimpeded.

When Bai Lian approached the building, he saw eight figures scattered in a row in all directions.

And the girl Qiong Yao cut out on the chief seat was Fang Geyu whom she hadn't seen for three years.

Her small body was wrapped in a ferret cloak, and under the cloak was a magnificent brocade garment woven of gold threads.

The soft and fluffy jet-black hair is crowned with a golden ring and hairpin pearls, and around her slender and fair neck is an agate emerald made of wreaths, so extravagant, bright and moving.

She had a relaxed expression during the banquet, and her naturally aloof eyes squinted slightly to look at people, like a snow-white and noble Persian cat.

Bai Lian cast his gaze away and stepped into the mat.

Fang Geyu seemed to sense it, and he glanced at his eyes lightly, with a snow-white face, an arrogant look, and calm and unfamiliar eyes.

The four eyes met, as if nothing had happened when Kong Cangshan first met.

Only a little cinnabar mole on the tip of the girl's ear was burning red, just like when she was parting back then.

Bai Lian's eyes darkened slightly, although he was staring at Ji Xinian's identity and skin, it was difficult for Fang Geyu to recognize him.

But that strange and indifferent gaze seemed to remind Bai Lian cruelly again.

Her emotions are completely sealed, the spider web is the cage, and the cassette is the seal.

And all of this is because of him.

Even if he stood here with his real appearance, she might still have no troubles.

"You are Ji Xinian?" Fang Geyu's clear and dark eyes were like lake water, and the hidden emotion could not be seen as irony or kindness.

Asked a question lightly, there was a slight scoffing sound from the table.

"The disciples of the Taixuan Nine Classics really have a great background, and they are nothing more than ordinary people.

Relying on your own chance, you were lucky enough to get a red fish jade pendant from the hand of the city lord Fang, and to be the guest of the Third Miss Fang is already a great blessing and a great fortune for you.

I really don't know where you have the guts to break your appointment and be late, and you have to trouble Third Miss Fang to personally pass on the disciples of the clan to pick you up. "

The speaker was a young man in a blue dress and brocade robe, exuding a fairy energy that did not belong to the spiritual power of the world, he was not a mortal.

On his forehead is a brocade inlaid bead of the same color to wipe his forehead. That small bead has a long history, it is the strange eye of an ancient fierce beast.

Bai Lian looked through the historical records of the fairy book, and remembered that the ancient fierce beasts were poor and strange, and were destroyed by Nanyin Xianhai Haizhu.

Looking at the bone age of this child, it is impossible to be the Lord of the Golden Immortal Sea, but since he can use the poor and strange eyes as a trophy as an ornament to show off.

Thinking about it, it can only be the direct descendant of the Golden Immortal Sea Lord.

But listening to what he said, what made Bai Lian even more concerned was that he said that it was the disciple of the Taixuan Nine Classics who won the ninth red fish jade pendant...

That is to say, before Bai Li'an entered the city, 99 had already started to make arrangements to find someone to take his place, obtain the jade pendant for him, and win the qualification to enter the curtain.

She actually planned everything from such an early age.

A chill ran down Bai Li'an's spine. This woman's mind and city are truly terrifying.

"Why does Pavilion Master Situ have to be so temperamental? Miss Fang San, who is the host of the banquet, was not bothered, and even sent someone to welcome him.

This means that Miss San, who is the host, doesn't care about it, so why should Pavilion Master Situ be aggressive as soon as he comes up? "

The person who spoke for the second time had a clearer voice, but his tone was somewhat familiar.

Bai Lian heard the reputation and looked over, and saw a strange young man in a date-colored arrow-cloth, smiling at him with white teeth.

Bai Lian had never seen his appearance before, but Bai Lian was very familiar with those playful and narrow almond eyes.

Bai Lian's eyes were wide open, and under her playful gaze, he suddenly felt that his back was even more chilly.
