Antiquity

Chapter 69 Meeting
There was a moment's pause for the hand that was on Hong Sun's head, and he turned his head, looking at the figure walking in the bamboo sea, feeling a little dazed.

6 years is not short after all.In ancient times, it was believed that some people would not change much when they meet again even if they have not seen each other for thousands of years, such as Bai Jue and Tian Qi.But this time when he wakes up, Tian Qi is no longer the wanton and arrogant person he was before, and Bai Jue...

The man approaching slowly had black hair, a cold expression, a red light flashed in his pupils, and his expression was slightly stunned. He could hardly believe that the person in front of him was Bai Jue. Apart from the similar appearance and the golden mark on his forehead, she even Bai Jue's aura of that year has never been felt in people.

It was as if something was blocking the two of them, and it was hard to find the tacit understanding tens of thousands of years ago.But almost at the moment when she saw Bai Jue, an extremely unspeakable sadness poured into her heart, and the fingertips hidden in the robe in the ancient times trembled unconsciously. This was an emotion that did not belong to her at all... Inexplicable and intense.

Shang Gu was secretly surprised, there was a moment of doubt in his eyes, he raised his eyebrows, slowly condensed his breath to drive away the turbid air, and said with a smile: "Red Japanese are so sexual, it's not good to be restrained."

Hong Ri turned around, keeping his head straight, seeing that Bai Jue and Shang Gu were too lazy to pay attention to it, he ran away with two 'humphs'.

"That's right, it's rare for you to come here, so you might as well sit down."

Shang Gu nodded, flicked his sleeves and walked directly to the stone chair next to the bamboo grove, walking skillfully, as if he was very familiar with this place, Bai Jue's eyes flashed, and he sat opposite, looking quietly at Xiang Gu.

Dark green ancient robe, black boots of the Emperor Dragon, and indifferent eyebrows and eyes, just like before.

It was as if she had never imprinted the passing of these 6 years in her heart.

"Your hair..." Bai Jue's glazed blond hair turned into jet black.

"After all, it's in the lower realm. It's not good to be too public. I will change it back when I return to the ancient realm." Bai Jue smiled and covered up the topic.

"Why, from what you said just now, do you think you will entertain me here in the future? Your realm of the sky...can I still go there?" Shang Gu curled his lips and said in a loud voice, his pupils glowing like glazed glass.At any rate, they haven't seen each other for tens of thousands of years, leaving aside the matter of Jing Zhao and A Qi, she is really happy to see Bai Jue at this time.

"You think too much. No matter how good the sky is, it can't compare to the ancient world. What's more, with Jing Zhao around, you probably don't want to go." Bai Jue shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, two steaming lamps appeared on the stone table. strong tea.

Seeing that he was outspoken in ancient times, and he was really interested in the events of the past century, he couldn't help asking: "Since you fell in love with Jing Zhao, how could there be A Qi back then? Even if the status of a mortal woman is not as good as Jing Zhao, with you With your ability, it is not difficult to help her become a fairy, and it is not like your character to act so indecisively."

With Bai Jue's disposition, no matter if he is a human being or a demon, a fairy or a demon, it will be a matter of a lifetime if he recognizes it.It was a joke to make her believe that Bai Jue was facing Qin Muchu.

"A mortal girl? Tianqi probably hasn't told you..." Bai Jue frowned, his smile was playful, and his voice was unhurried: "Before I awakened, I had the same identity as you... the Qingmu Shangjun in the fairy world... , At that time, I met A Qi’s mother, and asking to marry Jing Zhao was a matter of awakening.”

Shang Gu was stunned, and for some reason heard it awkwardly: "Then...you don't have a clear memory?" Could it be that Bai Jue, like her, can't remember the past at all after awakening?

Seeing that Bai Jue didn't answer, Shang Gu answered: "That's the same as me. Tianqi said that I was the Houchi Xianjun of Qingchi Palace for tens of thousands of years, and the daughter of Gujun Shangshen. I have never heard of it before. There is also an ancient emperor in the ancient world, and he was promoted to the throne only in the past few tens of thousands of years?"

A hundred years ago, Hou Chi would not hesitate to hurt him with the sword of the ancient emperor for the sake of Gu Jun and Bai Xuan in the sky, but now, he can't remember these two people at all.

Of course, Qing Mu was also forgotten...

Bai Jue looked at her with an unclear expression, and after a while, he finally laughed: "He is the god who was promoted in the later ancient world, it's normal if you don't know. Those who return to the ancient world, these trifles in the lower world need not be ignored."

Shang Gu couldn't tell what the smile on the corner of his mouth meant, so he picked up his cup and took a sip, saying: "What's your relationship with Tian Qi all these years, after waking up this time, I saw that he didn't even want to mention you. "

"A Qi's mother has some friendship with him, he doesn't resent me for neglecting A Qi and that girl, that's why it happened."

Shang Gu never thought there would be such a reason, frowned, and said: "Then A Qi's mother is now..."

Bai Jue paused holding the teacup, looked at Shang Gu, and said calmly: "She was gone a hundred years ago."

The ancients understood, and stopped bringing up this topic. Thinking of something, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Jing Zhao is Wu Huan's daughter, do you really want to marry her?"

Bai Jue nodded, with a distant expression on his face: "There is nothing wrong with her being in charge of the sky realm for me now."

"That's not what I meant." Shang Gu clasped his hands, a little impatiently: "She is the daughter of Wu Huan, regardless of her age, her seniority is a big problem. If you welcome her through the door, how will I deal with her in the future. "She told Tian Qi about this when she first heard about it, and she couldn't help feeling angry when she thought of what happened in Daze Mountain today.

"You went back to the ancient world, it's just that she doesn't appear in front of you."

"If I let the apocalypse spread to the realm of the sky, don't you know...?"

"I know."

"Then she went to Daze Mountain to attend Donghua's birthday banquet today? Don't you dare to ignore me just because you stepped into your door with half a foot?"

"She didn't know that you would go today, so she went with Wu Huan. Judging from your expression just now, it doesn't look like you have suffered a disadvantage. When you were in the ancient world, no one dared to provoke you. Jing Zhao's little thought, why? Can match you."

"That's true. I let her stay in the sky for a year in Daze Mountain just now, so don't come out for nothing. But this kind of character and appearance, the goddesses in the ancient world will grab a lot... You can't do it this time. I lost my eyesight!"

"She is still young after all, in ancient times, you are much older, why are you so fussy." Bai Jue turned the cup in his hand in a circle, his brows and eyes light.

"It's not like that... I just think..." Shang Gu waved his hand, halfway through speaking, seeing Bai Jue suddenly raised his head to look at her, with his pupils flickering, he couldn't help being a little startled, and said, "What's wrong?"

"In ancient times, as Jing Zhao, you don't even know how to read it, but now you are messing around. What's wrong with you...?"

The black and white eyes seemed to be full of tenderness. When I looked in, I could only see a piece of indifference. I paused for a moment, and I also felt that it was really strange. The words just now did not seem like what she could say. , Missing Bai Jue's gaze, she smiled and said, "I've known you for thousands of years, it's rare to see you want to find a home, I just don't think Jing Zhao is suitable."

"That's all?" Bai Jue said, curling the corners of his mouth, as if mocking.

"Of course." Shang Gu sat upright and said solemnly.

"Then who is suitable? Yuemi? Juefen? Or Yuqin?" Bai Jue knocked on the table, his lips tightened, and he looked at Xianggu: "Xianggu, you were like this back then, the goddess in the ancient world, who asked for it?" In front of you, I have to get along with them one by one for several years. I think I must have forgotten to tell you that I am not willing to go to Tianqi for such a bad person in the future."

"Bai Jue, you..." Shang Gu looked at Bai Jue in a daze.She has known him for thousands of years, and she has never seen him so impatient.

"If I like it, so what if she has no immortal base and is as weak as a mortal? If I don't like it, even if that person is in the Three Realms, I won't take a second look." Bai Jue raised his head, looking through the ancient world, Landing on the bamboo house behind her, there was neither sadness nor joy, and I couldn't see the meaning clearly.

"You like Jing Zhao so much? I didn't expect that." Seeing Bai Jue's solemn expression, Shang Gu was a little surprised.It's only been a hundred years since Bai Jue woke up, but unexpectedly, her love for Jing Zhao has become so deep. She sighed for Yuemi and Yuqin, who had struggled for tens of thousands of years, and she felt embarrassed for a while.

Although the Four True Gods have close personal relationships, they are after all a marriage of others. She did do a lot of careless things when she was in the ancient world. It is a miracle that Bai Jue can bear it until now.

"No..." Hearing Shang Gu's muttering, Bai Jue turned his head, barely saying two words and then stopped talking.

"Okay, I won't interfere with your affairs anymore." Shang Gu waved his hand: "My divine power will recover in a year, when I restart the ancient world, you take A Qi back to Baijue Hall, even if you send Jing Zhao No matter how important you are, Aqi is still your flesh and blood."

Bai Jue shook his head, looking at Xiang Gu with serious eyes: "Shang Gu, that's why I came here today, I don't intend to recognize A Qi, you go back to the ancient world, it's good for this child to follow you."

Shang Gu raised his head, frowned and said: "Bai Jue, no matter how much I love A Qi, I can't replace the existence of his close relatives. Whether you have a clear memory or not, A Qi is your responsibility."

"Shang Gu, what about you..." Seeing Shang Gu raise his eyebrows, Bai Jue said indifferently: "You will stay in the lower realm and take charge of Qingchi Palace because you used to be Houchi?"

"How can this be the same?"

"What's the difference? In ancient times, the mortal world lasted only a hundred years. Even though Houchi and Qingmu have existed for a longer time, is there any difference to us? You never asked about anything about Houchi, No, it is precisely because of this. Besides, you and A Qi hit it off, since that's the case, why not help me take care of him?"

Bai Jue's expression was serious, he knew in the past that he had finally met someone he liked, but he was born and dragged his family. If Jing Zhao lost face, it would be a very hurtful thing, so he could only nod with a stern face: "I'm too lazy to listen to you." I will keep these fallacies, A Qi, and I will never lose him, when I raise a child in the future, don't come to recognize your relatives by licking your face."

"No, I'm very relieved that he stays with you."

For some reason, listening to Bai Jue's words, Shang Gu felt extraordinarily calm, and glanced at him suspiciously.

"A year later, you will return to the ancient world?"

"Well. Why, you don't plan to go back?"

"The matter of the lower realm is over, now is not the time."

"I've heard from Feng Ran that the current Demon Emperor is only the Supreme Lord, and indeed he is far from being able to compare with Twilight and Wu Huan, but it is always a bad thing for the two worlds to compete. Why didn't you stop it back then?"

"Fairies and demons have been fighting for a long time. There was a grudge. In addition, Twilight attacked the demon world when the previous demon king, Sen Jian, was seriously injured. As a result, Sen Jian died on the battlefield. Sen Hong naturally refused to give up."

"Why would Twilight do such a thing? But with Twilight and Wuhuan's divine power, it will be a matter of time before the demon world falls, unless...you take action." Shang Gu frowned and said, "Bai Jue, if you intervene in the affairs of the lower realm, I will I won't care."

"Don't worry, I won't intervene. I helped Senhong back then because Twilight lost justice and benevolence." Bai Jue raised his head and said suddenly: "But Shanggu, I hope you will return to the ancient world in a year, and don't come back to me again." Intervene in the affairs of the lower world."

"What do you mean?" Shang Gu said in a deep voice.

"Sen Hong bears a blood feud, and he will definitely not let it go. I hope that no matter how the Three Realms change in the future, you will not interfere in these 100 years."

Shang Gu was silent, and glanced at Bai Jue lightly, all the gentleness and harmlessness towards him just now were restrained, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he said: "Bai Jue, do you know what you are talking about?"

Seeing that Shang Gu finally got serious, Bai Jue also froze his expression and said, "Naturally."

"I can tolerate them fighting now, but it's because the war is not too serious. If the fairy and monsters are in trouble and implicate the human world, I can't ignore it. How can I agree to such a ridiculous thing like you."

"Ancient." Bai Jue sighed, with some inexplicable meaning in his eyes: "Even if I just told you that Twilight took advantage of others' danger to attack the demon world; As a result, the rift between immortals and demons is getting bigger and bigger, and you never thought of removing him from the position of Emperor of Heaven, right?"

Shang Gu paused for a moment, then nodded: "He is responsible for the destiny of the lower realm, and it is only natural for him to command the Three Realms. If there is a mistake, the punishment will be to cut off the position of Emperor of Heaven, which is not enough."

Shang Gu was right and fair enough, but Bai Jue laughed: "So... even if Sen Hong wins Twilight in the end, you wouldn't let him become the Lord of the Three Realms?"

This is simply impossible, if the four of them don't intervene, how could Sen Hong win Twilight and Wu Huan?Shang Gu didn't bother to pay attention to him, and remained silent.

"I will not issue an imperial decree for them to cease fighting, but the demon world will lose sooner or later." Shang Gu said.

"I just don't believe it, I promise you, I will never let this war get involved in the human world, so, no matter what the outcome of the battle between the fairy and monsters is, as long as I don't intervene, you can't intervene, how?"

"Okay, but you have to tell me, why do you insist on doing this?" Seeing that Bai Jue promised that the battle between immortals and demons would not involve the human world, and that there was no better solution at this time in the ancient times, he agreed, but he really couldn't understand him. Stubborn.

"Because...I want to prove that the so-called destiny you have always believed in...doesn't need to be obeyed at all."

Bai Jue's voice was a little weak, he stood up and walked out of the garden, his back was cold.

"The fate grid is made by God the Father, and it is the law that supports the entire Three Realms. Bai Jue, you can't break it."

Shocked by the decisive words in his mouth, Shang Gu stood up abruptly and said in a deep voice.

"So what, in ancient times, we have lived for tens of thousands of years, and it is impossible to live in accordance with the laws and regulations of the ancestor gods. If so, even if we have a long life span, what is the use of it? It is not even as wonderful as ordinary people's hundred years .”

Bai Jue turned his head, with a peaceful expression on his face, and said softly, "In ancient times, the ancient world was destroyed 6 years ago. Except for Tianqi, except for you and me, except for Twilight, except for Wuhuan...all the gods should be robbed. death, even if you restart the ancient world one day, so what?"

His expression was too desolate, Shang Gu's heart was shocked, his eyes were slightly closed, and he opened them after a while.

"This is my business. Even if the ancient world is destroyed, I will rebuild it. If it doesn't work for a thousand years, it will take ten thousand years. If it doesn't work for ten thousand years, it will take 10 years."

Shang Gu looked determined, and slowly clenched his hands hidden under his robe.Why didn't she know that Bai Jue was telling the truth, after the catastrophe, no one knew what the ancient world had become, maybe it was just ruins after she opened it, but so what, she couldn't give up there after all.

"Forget it, you have your stand, and I have my insistence. If one day, I return to the ancient world, I'll get drunk with you again. It's not suitable now after all."

Bai Jue turned around and walked out, his back gradually drifting away.

Looking up in the ancient times, the green bamboos on the top of the mountain suddenly came into view, the ancient courtyard, the waiting red sun... As if she was blessed, she suddenly said, "Bai Jue, do you love Jing Zhao, or the one who loves you?" A mortal woman who died a hundred years ago?"

The slow-moving figure suddenly stopped, and Bai Jue turned his head. His black hair had a transparent luster under the sun. He looked at Shang Gu who was standing in the fence with calm eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, "Shang Gu, if 6 years ago you If you ask me like this, I will definitely think that you are interested in me."

But now, it doesn't matter who you care about, I won't be too affectionate anymore.

Seeing Bai Jue disappear in place, Shang Gu was stunned for a long time before he understood what he just said, stared at him for a long time, then flung his sleeves and walked towards Qingchi Palace.

She can ignore the battle between immortals and demons, but the disciples of the ancient world are at the battle between the two worlds, and she has to let Feng Ran watch over them. After all, they are also the gate of her house. Bai Jue doesn't feel bad, so she still has to take care of them.

No... halfway through the journey, Shang Gu remembered that he forgot to ask about Bai Jue Zhiyang just now...

Above the sea of ​​clouds, Shang Gu rubbed her chin and got into trouble. Should she go back to Qingchi Palace to send Feng Ran to run around... Or go to the sky to compete with the unlucky princess who just saw her face today?
