Flower Moon

"I must take you to see the official." Tao Yue'er said, "This matter will be revealed to the world."

After Tao Yue'er finished speaking, Chang Yu burst out laughing.

"If they were useful to the officials, would they burn those people so quickly?" Chang Yu didn't panic at all and looked at Tao Yue'er with a smile.

"You mean..." Tao Yue'er said in disbelief.

"So, when you are smart, you are pretty smart, but when you are naive, you don't give in too much."

Chang Yu laughed in a low voice, stood up immediately, and said: "I'm full and I don't have time to play with you anymore. You can tell the world whatever you want, I don't care. But I advise you not to waste your efforts." .”

"In today's Xuanmen, everyone's eyes are fixed on the ladder to heaven, and they have too much time to take care of themselves. Who will take care of Yanguo's affairs? I suggest you go back to practice in seclusion as soon as possible. When the ladder to heaven opens next year, if you really want to avenge them , it’s better to compete on the ladder.”

After Chang Yu finished speaking, Tao Yue'er didn't see how she disappeared.Her dress flashed, and then a stream of sparkling dust flew up and rushed towards Tao Yue'er's eyes. Tao Yue'er dodged, but did not feel anything unusual.

Tao Yue'er looked up, but Chang Yu was no longer there.

"Where has she gone?" Tao Yue'er asked Hua Ling.

Hua Ling shook her head: "I don't know."

"Even Chang Yu was born, I'm worried..." Tao Yue'er looked extremely frightened, as if thinking of a purgatory scene, but Hua Ling beside her was extremely calm and said: "Since the ladder to heaven was opened, it has been Anticipating this scenario, there is no point in worrying. Improving your own strength is fundamental."

"What shall we do now?"

"Like her, go to practice."

"Where to practice?"

"Go wherever the danger is most. Only by going where others won't go can you be successful."

Tao Yue'er felt that what Hua Ling said made sense, but she had to do the reporting.At present, the Yan Kingdom court has naturally been opened up by Chang Yu, but what she did must be made public in the Xuanxiu world.

"Where is Jiufangliao in Yan Kingdom?" Tao Yueer asked the innkeeper.

The innkeeper thought for a long time before he seemed to understand what she was asking. After thinking for a while, he said: "You go out and walk south until you reach the end, which is the small pavilion under the city tower."

Tao Yue'er and Hua Ling walked along the direction he mentioned for a long time. It wasn't until the sun was about to set that they discovered it at the foot of the tower - a small, poor pavilion with half of the thatch on its head having been torn off.

"This must be the most dilapidated Jiufangliao I have ever seen." Tao Yuer'er said.Even though I originally lived in the capital of Jingguo, which was hardly disturbed by gods and ghosts, the Jiufangliao established in Jingcheng was very appropriate and grand.But the Jiufangliao in Yan State was indeed in dilapidated condition.

Hua Ling said: "The Yan Kingdom prioritizes the construction of weapons. The entire Nine Demon City is guarded by magical weapons, so it is not attacked by many monsters. It is understandable that it does not rely so heavily on the warlocks of the Nine Directions."

Tao Yue'er felt that what Hua Ling said was reasonable, so she stopped worrying about it and walked straight to the pavilion.

Looking from a distance, it seemed that there was a person sitting there in the pavilion. Tao Yue'er took a closer look and found that the person sitting in the pavilion was not a person at all, just a pile of straw.With a slight touch, the bamboo hat on the head fell off, revealing the paper man made of straw inside.

"So even the person is fake?" Tao Yue'er was shocked.

"I'm afraid that because there is no one in the Jiufang Liao, over time even the established Liao Si will be abandoned."

"..." Tao Yue'er didn't know what to say, so she could only write a letter to record everything that happened these days, and then put the letter into the mailbox of Jiufangliao.As for when the letter could be sent, she had no time to worry about it.

She did what she could. As for the future, she could only defeat Chang Yu when she met her again in the future only by taking the lead in enriching her own strength.She also needs to make final preparations for the ladder selection.

Hua Ling went to the post station and rented a carriage. He drove the carriage ahead, while Tao Yueer sat in the carriage.

She didn't ask Hua Ling where they were going, she just followed Hua Ling, still thinking about Chang Yu in her mind.

Although she has seen some things in the world and people over the years, the environment she lived in since childhood and her subsequent encounter with Hua Ling made her feel that this world is a beautiful world.She always finds people who help her and take care of her.Although she had been tired of the world, Hua Ling's existence was proof that the world was still beautiful.Later, when he met Wen Buyi, his feelings for Le Fangfei just proved that there are still a majority of pure-hearted people in this world.Although Ji Hanyu, Liu Jing and others were unhappy, she was still willing to take the initiative to help, contribute, and extend her kindness.I also believe that the vast majority of people will treat her with kindness.

But Chang Yu is different.All her nervousness, fear, and shrinking were all faked. She was able to be cruel to the family members she lived with day and night, and not a single one of the three hundred and one members of her family was left alive.Her cruelty made Tao Yue'er's faith almost collapse.

She took advantage of her kindness.

If she hadn't trusted people so easily, then Chang Yu wouldn't have had a perfect witness, and she might not have been so vicious.

"Chang Yu is cruel, but in this world, there are many people who are more cruel than Chang Yu." Hua Ling, who was driving, suddenly sighed and spoke.His voice was as calm and cold as ever, without any ripples.As if it was no surprise what the world did in front of him.

"Hua Ling, has anyone made you sad?" Tao Yue'er suddenly spoke hoarsely.

Hua Ling was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."

"Who?"

"Myself."

Hua Ling's words made Tao Yue'er very confused.

"Why are you making yourself sad?"

"Because... I did something wrong."

"Did you remedy the situation?" Tao Yue'er asked again.

The carriage suddenly stopped, and after a moment, it continued moving forward.

Hua Ling secretly said: "Not everything can be repaired. If something is wrong, it is wrong."

Tao Yue'er could sense the sadness in Hua Ling's tone.

Hua Ling was never a person who would feel sad casually. The fact that he was so sad meant that this was not a good memory, regardless of whether it was a good memory or not.

"Live well from now on and try to make yourself happy. This is more important than anything else." Tao Yue'er consciously comforted Bai Bai and said no more.He opened the curtain, sat next to Hua Ling, and drove the carriage with him.

As the sun set, the two of them rode together, and their heartbroken mood seemed to have eased a lot.

No matter how difficult the world is, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, having someone by your side seems to be able to fill this loneliness.It also makes the thorns on the road ahead less dazzling.

Facing it together can make things simpler and easier.

Sorry...I've been too busy lately, so I can only update here and there.I'm really sorry
