Flower Moon

Tianji Mountain at night is completely silent.Chang Sui was already extremely tired, although his lips trembled from the cold, but wrapped in some tree roots and turf, he also fell asleep.Tao Yue'er took the quilt from the dressing box to make her feel better.

Tao Yue'er took another fur robe and handed it to Hua Ling: "You should sleep for a while too. I haven't had a good rest in the past few days, and I don't know what will happen in the second half of the night. Sleep for a while now."

"No need." Hua Ling sat upright, not at all sleepy.Presumably it was to prepare for the night vigil.

Tao Yue'er originally wanted to accompany him, but after he lit a burner of incense, he soon fell into a deep sleep.In her dream, she saw a child carved in powder and made of jade, wearing a small white gown, holding a pen in his hand, laughing and rushing towards her.And he also opened his hands and hugged him full.

He seemed to be calling her in her arms: "Master... Master..."

But she squatted down, put him on the ground, shook her head solemnly at him, and said, "You can't call me master, only they can call me master."

The child's face was filled with grievance in an instant, and tears rolled in his eyes.Tao Yue'er couldn't see such a pink and tender porcelain doll crying in front of her, and just wanted to comfort her, but at this moment, Meng woke up.Opening his eyes, in front of him was Hua Ling's face that was as bright as a peach blossom and as cold as ice.

"You are having a nightmare." Hua Ling said.

Tao Yue'er looked blank: "No, it's not a nightmare. Even, it's quite beautiful..."

"What did you dream about?" Hua Ling asked.

"I seem to have given birth to a child..." Tao Yue'er said shyly.

Hua Ling's face darkened, and said: "That was indeed a nightmare." In Hua Ling's world, he never planned to marry a wife, let alone have children.Hearing that Tao Yue'er had given birth, in his opinion, it was undoubtedly a nightmare.

Just when the two were about to continue discussing the issue of children, suddenly, they found that the road in front of them was not the same as in the daytime.

During the day, there was only one road up the mountain, which was winding and winding, and could only accommodate one person, but now, in the darkness, another road suddenly appeared.

It was a road exuding phosphorous fire, not too steep, even very gentle, compared with a straight upward road, it seemed effortless.

"What's going on here?" Tao Yue'er walked over, looked at the road turned blue due to the phosphorus fire, and asked doubtfully, "Could this road be a shortcut?"

"The road that is easy to walk often seems to be a shortcut, and it is only after walking that you know it is an abyss." Hua Ling said lightly: "The more difficult road may be easier to walk through."

Tao Yue'er felt reasonable, and said, "That's true."

Just when Tao Yueer and Hua Ling decided to ignore the road that appeared in the middle of the night, Chang Sui was awakened by the conversation between the two. When he saw this road, he stepped on it without saying a word, and said as he walked: "Maybe it's the other way around. It is right to follow the Tao. Everyone thinks it is a trap, but whether it is not or not, you will not know until you leave."

Chang Sui didn't want to climb with all his limbs for a moment, but only thought about the gentler road that looked like a big road.

Tao Yue'er couldn't even stop her, but after getting along for so long, she couldn't bear to separate, so she could only follow behind her and walked over: "You wait for us."

Seeing that Tao Yue'er had also left, Hua Ling had no choice but to keep up no matter whether the road ahead was a man or a ghost, a smooth road or a trap.

On the blue road, frost formed on both sides.

"It's so cold." Chang Sui still couldn't resist the cold even though he was wearing the quilt Tao Yueer gave him.Eyelashes and lips are covered with a thin layer of frost.

Tao Yue'er was naturally extremely cold.But her living environment since she was a child is destined to not be as weak and expressive as Chang Sui. She often has no clothes to wear and no quilt to cover in the winter, and she has already gotten used to it.Even if you cry cold and tired, no one will help you.

The only way she expresses her coldness is to rub her hands back and forth non-stop, and then breathe out with her lips.

At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed hers.

Hua Ling stretched out her right hand, holding both of her palms in one hand with thin and slender fingers.

Hua Ling just held her hand silently and led her forward.

Tao Yue'er inexplicably felt that she was not cold anymore, and even...was a little hot.

Tao Yue'er didn't struggle, and let Hua Ling lead her tacitly, a silent tacit understanding.Although she felt that this was against etiquette and ancestral precepts, she thought that she would probably never like others in this life, let alone get married.And Hua Ling has no plans to marry a wife for the time being, the two of them are like this, and it doesn't hinder anyone.Tao Yue'er also enjoyed this moment of joy with peace of mind.

So the treacherous surroundings seem to be less unknown and frightening, and I even hope that this road can be longer.

But Tao Yueer's thoughts finally came to nothing, and they reached the top of the mountain very quickly.On the top of the mountain, there are not many people, but there are also many.

Among the people Tao Yueer could recognize, Ji Hanyu and Xuanqingzong's disciples, as well as Wen Buyi and Jiang Wanning were all on the top of the mountain.Even Ji Qingwan, Ji Muyuan and Ji Zihan were among them.

They have already returned to Tianji Mountain from Cangguo, and even their footsteps are faster than theirs.

Tao Yue'er didn't know how they did it, but she thought, as an ancient Xuanmen family, Xuanqingzong's ability was naturally not something that an outsider could see.It is not uncommon to rush back to participate in the questioning.

But the atmosphere on the cliff is not good.

When the sun meets the moon, the moon has set and the sun has not yet risen.It was dawn, but the people on the top of the mountain were obviously not asleep.

Their swords are at war, and they are looking at each other before the battle.The appearance of Tao Yueer and the three of them undoubtedly broke the silent contest between a group of people.

"How dare you show up!" Seeing Chang Sui, Ji Qingwan walked over directly, and slapped her across the face with a 'slap'.

Chang Sui never expected that he would see this living Hades again so soon, and hurriedly covered his face and hid behind Tao Yueer and Hua Ling, feeling wronged and afraid to speak - she knew that she was single and weak , is not the opponent of the Xuanqingzong people at all.

When Ji Hanyu saw Tao Yue'er, he was naturally furious.Seeing Hua Ling holding Tao Yue'er's hand again, her face became even more ugly.

"Do you know what you're doing?" Ji Hanyu took it for granted that Tao Yue'er had been with Hua Ling for the past three years.

But the two are mismatched in terms of age and appearance.Tao Yue'er was obviously older than him, but she acted like his little wife, bowing down by his side, which made Ji Hanyu disappointed and jealous.

He didn't know where his jealousy came from, but he just didn't want them to be together.

Even if he won't marry Tao Yue'er, she shouldn't be with Hua Ling.

"Unworthy."——These two words are something that everyone who sees them will feel from the bottom of their hearts.

Tao Yueer and Hua Ling are not from the same world.
