Antiquity

Chapter 72
The Cangqiong Temple is full of jade and stones, glazed fireworks, and the enchantress dances and dances in the hall, full of charms, silk and bamboo orchestras, and various styles.

Bai Jue sat at the head, dressed in black clothes, with light brows and eyes, his eyes seemed to be in the bustle of Sen Hong and Feng Ran's coming and going, only if he looked closely, he would look at the gate from time to time, his eyes were a bit erratic.

Sen Hong and Feng Ran occupy the positions on the left and right. Although Sen Hong is the master of a world, he is rarely approachable and has no pretensions. Coupled with the relationship between Feng Ran and Chang Qin, there is a tacit understanding between the two.One of these two people is domineering and elegant, the other is bold and forthright. With only a few words, they seem to hate each other.

As the wine gradually got drunk, Sen Hong raised his head and looked at the empty seat beside Bai Jue, and said in a slightly respectful voice, "Shenjun, the ancient true god is delayed..."

Although he did come here this time with the intention of admiring the dignity of the ancients, but the status of the ancients is noble, even if he does not attend, he will not be too disappointed, but the eyes of the Lord Baijue on the main seat are glued to the gate. He has been the demon emperor for a hundred years, and his perception of words and demeanor is far better than in the past.

Bai Jue glanced at the empty seat next to him, then waved his hands and said, "Her virtue must be on the bed, Yun Shui, go to the back hall to have a look."

The maid standing by the side responded and left.

As soon as Bai Jue finished speaking, a figure entered from the side hall, walking towards the three of them, the sound of footsteps landing could be heard, after all, what he was going to meet was the most noble god in the ancient world, Sen Hong hurriedly coughed and helped the three of them. The crown on the forehead, put away the elegance just now, his eyes were piercing, and the bearing of the lord of a world was immediately displayed, he sat upright and turned his head to look back, raised his hand halfway, and stopped stiffly.

Feng Ran, who was enjoying seeing Sen Hong's pose, also lowered her face, glanced at the visitor, and raised her eyes to Bai Jue, with mockery and anger shining brightly in her eyes.

Bai Jue also paused, a little surprised, he glanced at the empty seat beside him, his expression was unclear.

Behind the screen, Jing Zhao was wearing a long light green dress, without makeup, with a handsome, elegant face, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I've seen the Demon Emperor." Jing Zhao bowed in the direction of the Demon Emperor before walking towards the main hall.

Sen Hong bowed back in embarrassment, nodded slightly, turned around and took a gulp of wine sullenly, to cover up the discomfort all over his body.

"Shenjun, Jing Zhao is late, please don't blame him." Jing Zhao bowed to Bai Jue Yingying, his fair neck stood out, and his eyes were fixed on the person on the throne. Arrogant and arrogant.

Feng Ran curled her lips, turned her head to look elsewhere, and felt that the fine wine in the cup was very tasteless.

After being silent for a long time, he was still puzzled, and he calmed down after silently reciting "Male Thief and Female Prostitute" and the mantra of purifying the heart.

"That's right, sit down."

Bai Jue glanced at her indifferently, pointed at Fengran's bottom, Jing Zhao faltered, glanced at the empty seat next to Bai Jue, pursed his lips, and said "yes" and stepped down to Fengran's seat. and go.

Feng Ran was overjoyed when he heard this, and felt that Bai Jue had finally said something human, which was more effective than reciting the mantra for purifying his heart, so he felt relieved, raised his glass to the Yaohuang who was facing him, and took a sip of his wine.

A faint smile appeared in Yaohuang's eyes, seeing Fengran's fox-like appearance, he finally understood the reason why Chang Qin and Fengran had such a deep friendship after only a few encounters.

This fire phoenix is ​​so sincere and cute, I don't know who can subdue this temperament.

Halfway through drinking, the Demon Emperor looked at the dancers in the palace, and said with a loud smile to Bai Jue: "Shenjun, the dancers in the palace are all the treasures of my demon clan, can the Shenjun be satisfied?"

These words have some meaning, the daughters of the monster clan are bold and generous, with beautiful faces, all of them are the masters of ecstasy, and ordinary immortals may not be able to hold back even a moment after seeing them.When Jing Zhao heard this, his expression was a little stiff, and he glanced at Sen Hong, with a flash of anger flashing across his dignified face.

The demon emperor doesn't know what it means, there have been more than a hundred dancers who have been sent to the realm of the sky in the past hundred years, and she is usually an eyesore... Fortunately, the gods never put these female demons in his eyes...

"Very good." Bai Jue looked at the dancer in the palace solemnly, and answered slowly.

The three people in the next seat were all startled, their expressions were full of surprise, Jing Zhao's eyes widened and his lips were tightly pursed.

"The ancients like it, you should prepare more next year and send it to the ancient world."

The Yaohuang was overjoyed, understood the meaning of Bai Jue's words, and hurriedly said: "When Sen Hong goes back, he will choose some of the most beautiful people from all ethnic groups, and keep them for the ancient true gods."

The Apocalypse True God pretends to support the Immortal Realm. If the Ancient True God can be neutral, it is enough.

"Yaohuang, then I will inherit your love first." A faint voice came from outside the hall, lazy and loose, but with a little aftertaste.

The people in the hall paused and turned their heads to look outside.Only Bai Jue supported his chin with an inexplicable expression.

The dancers in the hall move slowly, and gradually spread out to leave a one-meter-wide road for the main hall. The demonic powers on the dancing silk strips complement each other, shining brightly.

The goddess who walked in was wearing an ancient black dress with a slightly open neckline. Silver threads swayed down from her waist and landed on the open and closed skirt, outlining the lifelike Bingdi lotus, which seemed real and unreal, blooming and extravagant, black The hair is like ink, scattered around the neck, and the blood-red crown jade is matched on the forehead, the appearance is peerless, seductive and coquettish.

If it is said that she is as elegant as a fairy in ancient times, then she is undoubtedly more suitable for the word 'monster' at this time. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has an appearance that charms all living beings.

The glazed lights outside the hall, and the world of mortals, seem to have fallen by themselves as they walked slowly in ancient times.

Bai Jue's half-recumbent body began to sit upright at some point. He quietly watched Shang Gu who was approaching step by step, then suddenly got up, stepped off the throne, and walked towards Shang Gu.

The three people in the hall were startled awake. Looking at the two slowly approaching, they realized... Bai Jue was dressed in a black ancient robe. As he walked slowly, the gold-plated Bingdi lotus loomed at the hem, which was exactly the same as the one on the ancient body.

The Demon Emperor took a deep breath, and his brain became a mess... Bing Dilian, everyone in the three worlds is the meaning of harmony between husband and wife, if there is no permission from these two people, he really can't think of anyone who has the courage to do this. These two are wearing such clothes!
Feng Ran had a complicated expression, and she put the cup to her mouth back on the table.

Jing Zhao stared blankly at Bai Jue who came forward, his face turned pale.She has never seen it so clearly like this time... The distance between her and the ancients is like a gap between heaven and earth.

Bai Jue would never look at her like this, as if his eyes could no longer hold everything,
For thousands of years, my mother has been obsessed with the things in the ancient world. Is it because of this that no matter how hard you try in this world, you will never be able to match that person in the slightest.

Shang Gu was blocked in the hall by Bai Jue, he glanced at him, raised his eyebrows and said: "You are being polite, but you came down to pick me up, are you still afraid that I will lose your face?"

Bai Jue lowered his eyes, covering the darkness in his pupils, and said, "Let's go up together."

After speaking, leading Shang Gu towards the throne, Shang Gu narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the black figure in front of him.

After the two sat down and the three saluted Shang Gu one by one, Sen Hong also regained his composure, seemingly not seeing the clothes of Bai Jue and Shang Gu, raised his glass to Shang Gu and said, "It's a good thing to be able to see the ancient god. Sen Hong's luck."

"You don't need to be too polite. I heard from Bai Jue that the demon world has been very prosperous in your hands for a hundred years. It's rare for you to be so young."

Shang Gu glanced at Sen Hong, a little surprised.Although this demon emperor is said to be from the demon clan, but his features are clear, and one can see that he is not of the evil generation. What's more difficult is that the demon power in his body is pure and free of hostility.

"Sen Hong is ashamed of the praise of the true god." Sen Hong said: "Sen Hong admires the power of the true god. It is really a pity to hear Feng Ranshangjun say that the god will return to Qingchi Palace soon..."

He had heard about the fact that the empress of Mount Daze was trained to be ashamed, if it weren't for the true god Bai Jue, presumably the ancients would not have treated him so kindly.Qingchi Palace is far away in Qilian Mountain in the fairy world, unlike the sky where it is located between the two realms, in his capacity, it is really inconvenient for him to visit him.

"No hurry." Shang Gu waved his hand, and said directly: "Feng Ran will go to the junction of fairy and demon to guard the gate of the ancient realm, and I will stay in the realm of the sky for a while. If you want to come, you can come anytime."

As soon as these words came out, Feng Ran and Jing Zhao were startled at the same time.Only Bai Jue frowned, seeing the eloquence of the ancient words, he did not interrupt.

Senhong pretended not to see the strangeness of the three of them, and said with a smile: "That's the case, then Senhong will be bothering you a lot in the future."

Shang Gu waved his hand to indicate that nothing was wrong, but for a moment he talked and laughed at Yan Yan with Yao Huang, regardless of their superiority or inferiority.

Only Jing Zhao's brows were lightly covered, and the hands under the sleeves gradually clenched tightly.

After the banquet was over, Jing Zhao returned to the side hall without a word, as if she had never appeared before.After sending the Demon Queen away, Feng Ran went to the Fairy-Monster Barrier with a dark face, but did not say a word to Shang Gu.

Shang Gu and Bai Jue walked towards the back hall one after the other. Along the way, they saw that their maids were all nympho-like, and the corners of their mouths were drooling, but they didn't know it.

Shang Gu looked puzzled, and said: "What's going on? I saw that the three of them looked abnormal in the hall just now. Could it be that my clothes are not right?"

Bai Jue stopped in his tracks, turned his head, with an incredulous look on his face: "You don't know?" Just now he thought that the clothes were chosen by Shang Gu himself.

"Yunzhu and Yunxi put it on for me, why, what's wrong..." After finishing speaking, he looked down at the robe on his body, and was taken aback for a moment.

Under the moonlight, two juxtaposed lotuses, one gold and one silver, are shining brightly, reflecting each other wrongly, which is really ambiguous and complicated.

"They prepared this for you and Jing Zhao, it must have been delivered by mistake." Shang Gu lowered his eyebrows, his expression a little pale.No wonder everyone looked dumbfounded, that's why.

"The apse will not prepare clothes for Jing Zhao, her clothes are all brought from Tiangong." Bai Jue said, frowning: "You are not planning to go back to Qingchi Palace with Fengran, why did you change your mind again? ?”

Thinking of those vague conversations in the back hall, Shang Gu looked up at Bai Jue and said, "Bai Jue, are you and Tian Qi hiding something from me?"

Qingchi Palace and the top of the sky, if there are people who can decide to hide her from these two places, apart from these two people, Shang Gu would never think otherwise.

"Of course not." Bai Jue brows and eyes were natural, seeing Shang Gu's suspicious expression, he said with a smile: "We have nothing to hide from you."

"What about Houchi? Nothing?"

Bai Jue blinked: "After all, Houchi has a lifespan of tens of thousands of years. The past cannot be blank. If you want to hear it, I will tell you."

Seeing that he was calm and breezy, Shang Gu shook his head and said, "No need, since you don't think it's important, then there's no need."

The two of them were talking, and they had already reached the door of Shanggu's room. Yunxi and Yunzhu had already received the news that Shanggu would stay for a longer period of time, and they were looking forward to their return.

"I have seen the emperor and His Highness."

Bai Jue waved his hand, sent Shang Gu into the room and went back.Shang Gu didn't play around with the two of them as usual, he walked towards the inner room and ordered lightly: "Bring me some light clothes to change."

The two glanced at each other, unable to see the expression on Shang Gu's face, they carefully entered the inner room and changed into a set of ordinary clothes for Shang Gu, and took off the crown jade on his forehead.

"Call Sanhuo here." Seeing the two servant girls trembling, Shang Gu didn't bother to embarrass them, so he waved his hands.

As soon as the two heard the amnesty, they ran out quickly: "Your Highness, wait a moment, we will call Long Zun right away."

Shang Gu laughed a little, loosened his hair, took a book and leaned on the soft couch outside, his expression slightly concentrated.

Sanhuo is the only one who has the guts to play such tricks on her and Bai Jue's clothes.

With her disposition, she would not take this matter to heart, she called Sanhuo here just for the conversation she heard in the apse tonight.

What's going on in Houchi... that Bai Jue and Tian Qi need to hide it together?

Her distaste for Wu Huan and Jing Zhao...is it related to the memory of Hou Chi back then?

The awakening of the godhead will not forget the past, just like Bai Jue has a clear memory... But her awakening is accompanied by the complete disappearance of Houchi, which is unusual in itself.

Since Bai Jue and Tian Qi wanted to hide it, even if she spoke, they would not tell the truth, so they might as well stay on the top of the sky to find the answer.

Even though Houchi's tens of thousands of years are only a gap in her life, she can't deny that no matter whether she awakened or not in those years, Houchi is ancient, and this is a fact that no one can change.

In her life, she has never needed others to make choices, even if that person is Houchi, she can't.
