Antiquity

Chapter 53 Unknown
The peach forest that stretches for ten miles, the sky is full of falling flowers, the stream flows slowly outside the forest, and... the sound of the book pages being gently blown in the man's hand seems to isolate this world miraculously.

With the sound of "Chirp Chirp", Bibo carefully tugged Houchi's robe, she came back to her senses, patted him comfortingly, and walked towards the person who closed her eyes and meditated not far away.

Be it Qingmu or Bai Jue, she has to figure it out clearly.

At the same time, in the back hall on the boulder, Jing Zhao stared blankly at Su'e who lowered her head, unconsciously tightened her hand holding Bu Yao, and murmured, "Su'e, what did you say?"

Su'e lowered her head, and her voice was full of anxiety: "Princess, that fairy is very rude. This servant guessed that it might be Houchi...Houchi fairy is back." She raised her head cautiously, seeing that her princess looked ugly, It quickly fell down again.

The person's demeanor and conversation were very much like the legendary God Houchi. Although she couldn't believe her sudden return, it was definitely a top priority for the princess.

Seeing that Jing Zhao was in a trance, Su'e reminded softly: "Princess, Immortal Houchi is heading towards Taolin."

The word 'Taolin' woke Jing Zhao suddenly like a thunderbolt. She stood up and realized her gaffe, then waved her hand at Su'e and said, "Su'e, don't spread this matter, and don't tell the queen mother either." After speaking, he went straight to the outside of the hall.

Seeing Jing Zhao disappear outside the hall, Su'e bit her lip, took out a paper crane from her sleeve, whispered a few words, exhaled fairy air on it, and the paper crane flew crookedly in the direction of Tiangong go.

In the peach forest, Houchi took every step very lightly, and when he was only a few steps away from the man in white, he even slowed down his breathing. The man seemed to notice something strange, frowned, closed his eyes and said: "Put things on the ground, go down."

He didn't hear the movement of putting things down for a long time, and the footsteps still didn't stop. The man finally felt that something was wrong, and opened his eyes. Under the backlight, his eyelashes moved slightly, and the scenery not far away was printed in the dark pupils.

The woman in a crimson robe looked at him fixedly, with a deep and cold expression, but with inseparable tenderness, Bai Jue looked at her with a calm and cold expression, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, and the golden color on her forehead The imprint suddenly became deeper, but returned to its original shape extremely quickly.

Houchi was slightly taken aback, even though she had been telling herself that Qingmu could not disappear, she was still a little at a loss when she saw Bai Jue opened his eyes and looked at her.

Qing Mu never looked at her like this, she was strange and indifferent, without any warmth.

The person in front of her raised her hands and feet with a calmness and elegance that surpassed ordinary people. This...is not her purity.

The person sitting in front of him seemed to have no intention of speaking first, Hou Chi stepped forward and said slowly: "Who are you...?"

Bai Jue put down the book in his hand, waved his hand, two teacups appeared on the stone table, and said calmly: "Houchi, don't come here without any harm, the humble house is simple, please use it."

Hou Chi's expression was dimmed, he watched the immortal energy escaping from the teacup, sat down, his eyes were unclear, and said: "I thought the real god would say that he didn't know me."

"Although I was sleeping in Qingmu's body back then, I still knew some things. It would be too much to say that I didn't know." Bai Jue waved his hands lightly, without any fluctuation in his voice, as if Houchi was just an insignificant person to him. people.

Houchi knew a long time ago... Since he would agree to this marriage because of Jing Zhao's kindness at the beginning, it is impossible for him not to know her, but... She would rather he pretended not to know her, so that she could tell the person in front of her It's still Qingmu, but there are difficulties.

Now he faced her calmly, without any twitching. When facing her, apart from indifference, there was no other emotion in his eyes.

"True God Bai Jue, where is Qing Mu?" Hou Chi asked coldly, too lazy to talk much.

Even if Qingmu is just his stand-in before awakening, why should he take away his existence? To her, Bai Jue can't even compare to Qingmu's hair.

"I'm awakened, his mission has been completed, so he disappeared naturally." Bai Jue picked up the teacup, took a sip, and the mist floated up, covering his restrained expression.

"What do you mean!" Houchi's heart trembled slightly, his eyes widened, his hand holding the teacup suddenly tightened, and a fierce evil spirit appeared all over his body.

"Of course a body can only have one soul. It's only natural that he disappears when I wake up." The indifferent voice seemed to have no emotion at all, Bai Jue completely ignored Houchi's anger, the corners of his lips curled up in a half-smile: "Houchi, this sentence of body was originally refined by me. Back then, I was sleeping in the North Sea. This sentence of body has self-awareness, and only then will it be clear. Now I just take back my own things. What's the matter? wrong?"

Houchi's expression was slightly gloomy, but he still looked at him stubbornly, and said, "Even if his soul disappears, there must be a place to go. Even if Qingmu has no body, his soul will not easily dissipate in the Three Realms. You Must know where he is."

Bai Jue didn't answer, but just raised his eyes to look at her, and said suddenly: "Houchi, I heard that you had a hundred-year agreement with Qing Muben back then..."

Houchi paused and nodded.

"But in order to wake up Bai Xuan and move the treasure of the Three Realms, you cut down your god position under Optimus Prime and exiled the sky for a hundred years..." Bai Jue stopped talking, looked at Houchi indifferently, and slowly stopped talking.

"True God Bai Jue, what exactly do you want to say?"

Bai Jue lowered his head, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his voice was cold and mocking: "Since you had made your choice back then, why would you come back a hundred years later to put on a show, Qingmu and Bai Jue, you already made your choice back then, didn't you?"

The deep voice seemed to come from the bottom of Jiuyou, Houchi was stunned, the person in front of him was clearly quiet, but now he just looked at her coldly and said such cruel words, Houchi The blood in the whole body suddenly seemed to be frozen, and it was cold to the bones.

Even though she was lonely in this hundred years of exile, she never found it hard to endure, just because she firmly believed that Qingmu was waiting for her to go back.

"It was my fault at the beginning, but I couldn't just sit and watch..." Hou Chi clenched his fingertips and said softly, his eyes drooping slightly.

"A mistake is a mistake. Houchi, Qingmu has disappeared. If you want to find him, there is no way out."

When Bai Jue's indifferent voice came, Houchi was refreshed and hurriedly said, "What can I do?"

"You spent a hundred years to save Bai Xuan, why don't you remember now!"

"You mean..." Hou Chi opened his eyes wide, his expression was full of surprise, what he meant was...

"As long as I die, take my body and refine it in the Soul Suppression Pagoda for a hundred years, maybe...he will come back after saving me."

Hou Chi stared at him blankly, unable to say a word, what kind of solution is this?
"Of course, no one in the three realms can kill me yet, so there is no other way." Bai Jue lowered his head, spread his hands, and smiled half-smile. .

Knowing that she had been tricked, Hou Chi's eyes suddenly became angry, but for some reason she felt that Bai Jue's appearance just now seemed somewhat calm, so she froze there.

Bai Jue also sensed something was wrong, narrowed his eyes, picked up the teacup without making a sound, and there was a sharp look between his brows.

The tense atmosphere disappeared, and it was rare to be quiet. Bibo on Houchi's shoulder called Houchi twice, and baba handed the egg in front of Houchi: "Houchi Immortal, he is hungry." Bibo looked at Houchi condemningly, his heart ached so badly, as if Houchi was an irresponsible stepmother.

Houchi rubbed his brows in embarrassment, and was about to take the egg that Bibo handed over, but he didn't expect the egg to fly straight towards Bai Jue, land in front of him, and then stop moving.

Jing Zhao, who had rushed to Taolin just in time, saw this scene, his body froze, and his expression was complicated.

The sharp indifference in Bai Jue's eyes subsided imperceptibly, and he reached out to catch the egg in front of him.

Houchi stared at this guy stiffly, put down his outstretched hand in embarrassment, and said dejectedly: "He has a bit of a temper..." He opened his mouth, seeing Bai Jue's strange expression, he didn't say any more.

Jing Zhao stopped in her tracks, her expression darkened, she stared fixedly at the two people not far away, and clenched her hands slightly.

Bai Jue didn't say anything, just stared blankly at the egg in his hand, seeing him move it in his hand, as if he was looking for a more comfortable place, a little surprise appeared in his eyes, but then quickly disappeared.

As if aware of Jing Zhao's appearance, Bai Jue looked in her direction from a distance, his brows softened, Jing Zhao froze for a moment, seemed a little excited, his eyes were slightly red.

Looking at this scene, Hou Chi felt that it was still dazzling, and his face darkened.

Why does this person flirt with Jing Zhao here with such a quiet look!

Zhao Jingzhao smiled comfortingly, and Bai Jue handed the egg to Houchi stiffly, and said, "He was transformed by the spirits of you and Qingmu back then, so I should take care of him, but... I'm about to get married, so it's difficult Thoughtful, the spiritual power of Immortal Houchi must be enough to make..."

Before Bai Jue finished speaking, Hou Chi had already stood up, his whole body glowing with cold anger, and his brows were piercing: "There is no need for Bai Jue to bother." He took the egg in Bai Jue's hand, turned and walked outside, and walked a few steps , Houchi glanced in Jing Zhao's direction, and suddenly turned to look at Bai Jue, his dark eyes gleaming brightly: "Bai Jue, you don't have to be like an enemy, so what about the true god? one."

After finishing his sentence, he turned around neatly, Houchi flew towards the sky, and disappeared into the peach forest.

Bai Jue's hand holding the book slowly lowered, his expression still indifferent and cold, he turned his head, waved to Jing Zhao who was not far away, and said with a smile, "Why do you come here when you have time? Could it be that all the things sent by your mother have been packed?" ?”

Jing Zhao's face was a bit shocked when he heard the words, and he approached, "I heard Su'e said that Brother Huang sent some things over, and they are all ancient wonders, so I invite you to have a look."

Bai Jue laughed, as if he was very satisfied with his fiancée's shyness, and said softly, "It's nothing, you go first, I still have a book to read, I'll come back later."

Jing Zhao said 'En', nodded very obediently, and walked out of the Taolin.

After walking a few steps and turning around, the man still had a slight gentleness between his brows, quietly looking at the ancient book in his hand, gentle and noble, without the indifference and sharpness when he faced Houchi just now.

She has only been with Bai Jue for a short month, but she also understands that this person is really the ancient true god Bai Jue, not the Qingmu whom she has been thinking about for thousands of years.He is always high above the sky, like a bright moon, overlooking the world, and people can only look up.

But he really protects her, so what's the matter, it's good that she can be by his side.

The corner of Jing Zhao's mouth curled up into a contented smile, and she walked outside, when she suddenly felt a cold pain, she opened her hand, and the blood flowed slowly from it, which was especially dazzling.

She was too impatient just now, and rushed out from the back hall, holding the Bu Yao in her hand, and when she saw the back pool, she scratched her palm in panic.

She stopped, paused, her heart was slightly cold, obviously such a gentle person, how could he not see such an obvious injury?
Maybe... I didn't find it.Jing Zhao concealed the uneasiness in his heart, and walked out slowly.

Outside Qingchi palace, Houchi stared blankly at Fengran who came forward to meet her, the hand holding the egg suddenly trembled, as if he lost all his strength and publicity in an instant, leaning on her shoulder, his voice was extremely loud. Low...very low.

"Fengran, he told me...don't come here unharmed."

"Fengran, he said that I gave up Qingmu with my own hands."

"Fengran, he said he wants to marry Jing Zhao."

"Fengran, he's really not Qingmu, Qingmu...disappeared."
