Flower Moon

Relying on what she learned in Xuanqingzong, Tao Yue'er successfully passed the literary test and waited at home for the martial test.

In the past few days, Tao Yue'er learned that there are four continents and nine countries in the world.Surrounding Yinghai, there are Penglai Island in the north and Qiongdao, many immortal mountains, which belong to the realm of immortals and are rarely visited by people; in the east is Qingcang Island, with the three kingdoms of Cang, Yong, and Henan.In the south is Jizhou, with the six states of Liu, Jing, Yan, Sheng, Feng, and Yan; in the west is Honghuangzhou, where no grass grows and monsters are everywhere.

Among the four continents, Qingcang and Jizhou are adjacent to the prehistoric, the three races of humans, demons, and demons co-exist, and there are constant disputes in the world, so there are nine warlocks who come out at the right time.

The magician of the nine directions walks in the two worlds of yin and yang, can understand the language of the underworld, and seals the monsters of the four seas.In Qingcangzhou and Jizhou, Jiufang warlocks have their own alliance, called Jiufangliao.Every year, according to the number of tasks completed by the warlock, the difficulty, and the test results at the end of the year, the Liaoji comprehensively evaluates the ability of each nine-party warlock, and distributes nine-level medals to them.The color of each stage from one to nine is from dark to light. The first to third stages are made of black iron, the fourth to sixth are brass, the seventh and eighth are silver, and the highest stage nine is gold.

As for Ji Hanyu, because he is a disciple of the Xuanqing Sect and has a supernatural status, he almost does not need to take the Nine-Direction Warlock Examination, and he will be regarded as a magic soldier wherever he goes.And those who did not study in the sect, such as Tao Yue'er, need to obtain medals to obtain professional qualifications.

Half a year after the literary test, at the end of the year, there will be an annual military test.Tao Yue'er still has half a year to prepare for the exam.

During this period, Hua Ling gave Tao Yueer an iron sword, and Tao Yueer practiced the sword day and night with it.It is very different from the appearance of doing nothing all day long in the past.

Even if her actions were irregular at the beginning, funny and ridiculous, but gradually, she became decent.

One day after the beginning of spring, when Ji Hanyu found Tao Yueer, she was practicing sword in the yard.

An ordinary iron sword wielding the simplest moves, but Tao Yueer's expression did not look relaxed.

"Tao Yueer, I finally found you!" Ji Hanyu excitedly pushed open the courtyard door, approached Tao Yueer, held her arms with both hands, and said with concern: "Why didn't you leave Xuanqingzong without saying goodbye? Do you know how long I've been looking for you?"

Tao Yue'er was taken aback when she saw Ji Hanyu.

This is Jingcheng, the capital of Jingguo, which is one hundred and eight thousand miles away from Tianji Mountain in Liuguo.

She never thought that she would meet him again.

She thought that they would never see each other again in this life...

"Why are you here?" Tao Yue'er stopped what she was doing, and asked with a dazed expression.

"I'm here to look for you." Ji Hanyu was slightly annoyed, and said, "You left Xuanqingzong without authorization, and the fourth master is going crazy! When will you go back with me?"

"...Really?" Tao Yue'er lowered her eyes and said, "I won't go back."

"Not going back? Why?" Ji Hanyu was stunned for a moment, puzzled and said: "Are you angry with me? Or have you been wronged in Xuanqingzong? Who bullied you? Go back with me, and I will avenge you!"

Tao Yueer shook her head and said, "I don't want to go back."

This is one of the very few times in her life when she would reject someone. She never refused in the past. When faced with the slightest kindness from others, even if she knew that the other party was giving alms, she would continue shamelessly.

But now she won't.She went to Xuanqingzong originally to treat Hua Ling's illness, but now that Hua Ling has recovered from her illness, she has no reason to stay.

As for the clean and noble Xuan Qingzong, she couldn't fit in either.

Now she knows that dignity is picked up by herself.

She has a pursuit, a goal, and an upward drive, and she no longer wants to be at the mercy of others like before.

"I can't hide under the wings of you and Hualing forever, I'm too useless like that."

Ji Hanyu wanted to say something, but Tao Yueer immediately answered: "You want me to live happily and meaningfully, right? I assure you, even if I am no longer a disciple of Xuanqingzong, I will one day become Make you proud of your existence. I will never let anyone bully me again, and I will never let the person I want to protect be hurt again. One day, I will meet you again in the highest hall."

She is also going to Penglai Wonderland, one of the five cultivators.

She will try to do it.

Ji Hanyu stared blankly at Tao Yue'er, quietly listening to every word she said, he found that she was indeed a little different from before.

In the past, Tao Yue'er hunched over most of the time, although she was not hunchbacked, she always gave people a cautious feeling.But now, she no longer wears a forehead wipe on her head, and shows her tattoos generously, as if she doesn't care about others' opinions at all.

She is stronger than ever.

She is no longer that yes and good old lady.

Ji Hanyu didn't know whether to be happy or sad for her, but seeing Tao Yueer like this, he suddenly felt that the other party no longer needed his help.

She has really grown up.

"You...just have a good time." Ji Hanyu sighed, and stretched out his hand to pat Tao Yueer's head, but seeing her burning eyes, he stopped patting the head and patted his shoulder instead ——This is an action that only occurs between two people who are respectful and equal.

With such a simple action, Tao Yueer smiled knowingly, she knew that Ji Hanyu finally regarded herself as a person.

After Ji Hanyu leaves, Hua Ling will wake up from her afternoon nap.He leaned against the door and asked her lazily, "Are you angry?"

"What?" Tao Yue'er was taken aback.

"Are you still angry with Xuanqingzong's people?"

"Angry." Tao Yue'er nodded, not hiding her anger at all, but this anger was not directed at Xuan Qingzong, but purely at Liu Jing.

Hua Ling saw through Tao Yue'er's thoughts, and said: "Being angry is not cowardly. Cowardly people can only be angry, and can't do anything to them."

"...Yes." Tao Yue'er nodded discouragedly.

But what else could she do besides being angry?

Just now I said such ambitious words, but in the final analysis, I am still a very old woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken.Wanting to fight against the distinguished Liu Jing is simply a dream.

So, what is there to care about?
Tao Yue'er forced a smile, and was about to say that she was fine, but Hua Ling sneered with a sullen face, "So, do you want revenge?"

"What?" Tao Yue'er was puzzled, but every time she saw Hua Ling's expression, nothing good would happen.

Sure enough, Hua Ling said immediately after, "How do you want them to die? I can teach you a hundred ways. Or, do you want them to be unable to survive or die? I can also teach you."

"No, no, no... that's not what I mean, I, I don't want them to die!" Tao Yue'er waved her hands again and again: "I just feel that I am not from the same world as them, and I don't want to participate in it."

"Oh, sometimes fate can't help you to say no." After Hua Ling finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows inscrutablely: "If you treat yourself like a sheep, then it's not surprising that you are eaten up and wiped out."

"Ok?"

"In this world, you can't get fairness by being weak, and you can't get mercy by being gentle. Only strength is the foundation of your life. If someone bullies you, pay back ten times, and no one in the world will dare to bully you again."

"I know. I will never be weak again."

Tao Yueer took a deep breath, and was about to continue practicing sword, but Hua Ling said again: "Tao Yueer, I'm serious."

"Ok?"

"You have to believe that age, scars, and mortal bodies are not problems. So what if you have broken bones all over your body? Just reshape one, and if you can't reshape it, I will make you one."

"Remember, 26 years old may not be young in the mortal world. But in Penglai, this age is nothing at all. If you set your goals higher and extend your life longer, you will You will find that the 26 years you have experienced are the roots that pass by but bring you incomparably abundant vitality."

"Tao Yue'er, go to Penglai and let all of them only look up to you in the future."

It was evening, the sunset covered the sky, and the sky was ablaze with red lotuses.The bewildering Huoshaoyun, strange and splendid, seemed like an unknown future, which filled her with anxiety and hope.

Regardless of the long road ahead and the vicissitudes of the situation, she will turn everything in the past into a sword and armor to overcome thorns and thorns.Since then, it has been invulnerable to all poisons and invulnerable to swords and guns.

She will definitely seek justice for Qiubi.

She will never let her life go to waste again.

She wants to go to Penglai as Hua Ling said, and become the existence that everyone looks up to.

Tao Yue'er nodded with a smile, and said to Hua Ling seriously: "Okay! I promise you, I will definitely do it!"
