Beyond the Divine States

An oil lamp was burning on the table. Zhao xianger sat down on the chair. Her hand was across her abdomen, and the back of her hand was pressed by the elbow of her other hand. The girl's head hung slightly. She opened the letter of apology with one hand and read it softly

"Hello, Miss Zhao. After thinking about it, I can't sleep for a long time. I feel very sorry for you, so I write this letter. I hope your highness will forgive me."

Hypocrisy... Zhao Xiang'er whispered to the reader, and there was no expression on her face. Her eyes turned lightly, and she continued to look down.

"In a month, thanks to the girl's care, she spared no effort to carve my body and forge my body and mind with her fists and feet. I often think about it. Although I often complain, I am deeply moved."

"Miss Zhao is the king of a country. She always patiently explains the principles of sword and fist to me. She is good at persuasion and persuades people with reason. She is even more condescending. She has cooked some rice and noodles in person. The taste is not inferior to that of imperial food. I think I will remember it all my life."

Zhao Xiang'er took a deep breath. His nose moved back and forth, his chest heaved, his face was dizzy, his apricot eyes were bright, and his hands were clenched.

"What kind of apology is that? You are a villain indeed Zhao xianger bit the teeth of Bei, and her face was angry. She resisted the impulse of tearing up the letter and continued to look down.

"Mrs. Bai came into the world in the posture of destroying the city. You and I are perfectly matched. Even if we never said it clearly, we always thought of it together. We can understand each other's secret words that deceive Mrs. Bai. At that time, I felt that as long as we work together, there will be no chopping things. "

Zhao xianger looked at the perfect combination of the four words and knew that it was the words in the letter of marriage. He should have deliberately disgusted himself... Hum, although he was really a little smart, he could roughly understand his every move at that time, but it was just a little smart. If he didn't defend the city with all his strength, he would not have a chance to form a congenital spirit? What does this letter mean now? To talk about the past with me? Shameless.

"It's a great honor for me to support the city and the general with your highness today. I think I will often think back to the sword that fell from the sky and his Highness's unique style of receiving the city with an umbrella in the long future."

Zhao Xiang'er's face finally eased. She continued to look down, and soon her face was about to kill again.

"Later, I was in danger with your highness. You and I fell to the ground in a daze. I don't know what happened in my dream, but I had no trace in my dream. I hope your highness will forgive me if there is any frivolous offence. Before, I mixed words with his highness, exchanged hands and gave him a little punishment, which made his highness lose face. It's also in menglang. When the girl's anger subsides, I'd like to go to the door to ask for a pardon. I hope your highness can forgive me a lot with his old love... "

"Don't you dare to mention..." Zhao Xiang'er loosened his hand on his waist and held the scabbard aside. He rubbed the gold on the scabbard with his fingers and said: "old love? Who is in love with you

She looked at the letter as if she saw Ning Changchang's face, and she read the last paragraph with anger.

"I'm very lucky to be a Zhao man, to meet your highness, and to meet you again. I don't know when it's time. Three years later, your highness should be as beautiful as this red umbrella. I wish you a speedy summit and a reunion of mother and daughter. "

"I wish you a long life, and I wish your highness a long life."

Zhao Xiang'er's face softened a little, but looking at the last sentence, however, he didn't like it. How could his name be close to the villain's name?

She tore the letter angrily along the middle of the sentence.

"I'm really upset and kind-hearted!" Zhao Xiang'er snorted coldly and threw the letter into a ball. However, the scene of him leaning against the red sun with his eyes full of gold appeared in her mind. She was worried.

Three years later, what if he really had a chance and his realm soared?

If you lose to him, how shameful should you be?

Zhao Xiang'er calmed down and picked up the letter, which had been thrown to the ground. He thought that after returning to the palace, he would find a craftsman to mount it and paste it in the bedroom, so as to inspire himself from time to time.

Of course, now Ning Changchang is far from her opponent, so she plans to beat him a few times while she is recovering from illness. It's better to beat him up.

Well, it's better to hit the sun than choose the day.

……

Zhao xianger didn't look for Ning Changjiu in his room. She found that the light in the study was on, and there were three figures in it. A conversation came out.

Zhao xianger stepped in front of the door, held his breath, put his fingers into his lips, licked the tip of his tongue, then silently poked a hole in the door paper and looked in.

Seeing Lu Jiajia sitting in the middle, he looked at Ning Changjiu suspiciously and said, "it's so late. What's the matter?"

Ning Xiaoling pulled down the platform and said, "the elder martial brother said that he had sent a letter to sister Xiang'er. I'm afraid it was a moment of pride. After that, he was trembling, so he came to Shifu for refuge."

“……”

Ning Changjiu retorted: "elder martial brother, how can you be such a coward? Before, I asked her to give me a punch. First, I made my body into a container. Second, I acted in a play. If I really played a trick, I might not be inferior to her. What's more, now Zhao xianger is seriously injured, and I don't want to take advantage of others' danger. "

Ning Xiaoling laughed for a while and recalled: "I remember that sister Xiang'er was very cruel for a while. When elder martial brother saw sister Xiang'er coming over with a cold face, he scared off the chopsticks. Elder martial brother acted like that."

As Ning Chang Chang said this, he also recalled the heavy fists he had smashed on his body. Many times, Zhao Xiang'er's fists were like a fight between life and death. He didn't leave any feelings. After that, when you have become a monk, you must beat this little girl to be obedient.

Ning long dry smile for a while, way: "act not like, how can cheat that old monster?"

Lu Jiajia listened and said with emotion, "you are really powerful. You can use such means at a young age. You are much more powerful than I was when I was a child. I'm afraid you will not be able to keep you in the future."

Ning Changjiu said: "younger martial sister is here, not far away."

Ning Xiaoling secretly smiles.

Listening to Lu's words just now, Ning Xiaoling thought of something again. With a smile, she broke down the stage again and said, "master, do you remember lighting the sword star last time, elder martial brother forgot to return the hairpin to you. Sister Xiang'er found out about this. She not only beat her elder martial brother, but also confiscated her hairpin. So far, she doesn't want to return it. "

Lu took a long look at Ning.

Ning Changchang felt a little humiliated, and immediately said, "at that time, it was just to make the play more realistic. I almost forgot about it. I'll ask for the hairpin for my master later. I'll ask for it myself. She won't dare to detain it."

Ning Xiaoling looked at him with distrust and said, "elder martial brother, pay attention to safety."

Ning long looked at the new hairpin on Lu's jade crown, thinking that she would decline, or that she would not bother herself to ask for it in person, but Lu looked at herself with a smile and said, "go and help me get it back."

Ning long cough twice, way: "good, I will go tomorrow."

Lu said: "tomorrow we will return to the peak. Miss Zhao should also return to the court. Let's go tonight. Don't delay."

Ning Xiaoling laughed and gloated.

Rather for a long time, I looked at Lu's wife for help, but she was indifferent.

"Yes, master." Ning Changjiu finally got up, sighed and walked towards the door.

Ning long walked to the door, vaguely felt a familiar smell behind the door, and then he noticed a small hole on the door. With a chill in his heart, he guessed something and tentatively opened the door.

Behind the door, still dressed in men's clothes, the girl with long hair stood with her hands around her chest. Her delicate face looked like the first lotus covered with frost. She was half a head shorter than herself, but her cold eyes looked down.

Ning Changchang's face was slightly shaken, and he smelled the faint fragrance like an illusion. Then he felt a tremor in his heart, thinking that his words should have been heard by her, and Lu Jiajia should also have noticed that she was eavesdropping outside the door, and then he pushed himself into the fire pit.

Ning long looked back and saw that Lu's smile was shallow.

With a sigh in his heart, he looked back at Zhao xianger and said with a smile, "Miss Zhao is here. It's a coincidence that Miss Zhao took my master's silver hairpin a month ago. I don't know when to return it?"

Zhao xianger did not answer directly, and said faintly, "come out."

Ning was forced to go out with him.

Ning Changjiu closed the door and said in a low voice: "many words in that letter are just jokes, but my heart of apology is true. If I didn't have you today, don't say the congenital spirit, I'm afraid I would not be able to survive."

Zhao Xiang'er said: "don't feel guilty. If I didn't have your golden black light to break the night, I couldn't hold Mrs. Bai's sword."

Ning long asked: "the gas has not gone, to ask the guilty?"

Zhao xianger shook his head and said, "I was a little angry, but I just heard what you and them said. I don't think it's necessary for me to be a fool, right, Ning dajianxian?"

Rather long think gentleman revenge three years not late, swallow a voice: "Your Highness is very true."

Zhao xianger sneered: "don't think that I don't know your flowery intestines. Anyway, the spiritual pulse has recovered and the congenital spirit has become. Now I bear humiliation and bear heavy burdens. I will practice hard in the future. In three years, I may be able to break my wrist, right?"

Ning Changchang said: "I don't dare. I'm not too sure about the three-year appointment. I admire your highness very much. Whenever I think about it, I always feel disrespectful to your highness."

Zhao xianger didn't believe it at all, and said: "even if you are so qualified now, I don't think you can surpass me. Three years later, I hope you don't let me down. I can't get down because I'm beaten too badly."

Ning Changchang said, "it's two years, eight months and three days."

Zhao Xiang'er frowned and said with a sneer, "what a pity."

Ning Changjiu digs off the topic and says: "the hairpin..."

Zhao xianger said, "accompany me outside."

Ning Chang didn't know what she was thinking, but in order to finish the task of Lu's marriage, she had to follow her.

Zhao Xiang'er took a look at him and said, "have you finally changed back to men's clothes? It was disgusting to see that white dress dangling in front of me

Ning looked at her for a long time and said, "how can Miss Zhao still wear this man's dress and love this dress so much?"

Zhao xianger glanced at him: "what do you mean?"

Ning Changjiu said with a smile: "it's OK, so we can be brothers when we go out."

Zhao xianger clenched his fist and went to his room: "you stand still. I'll change my clothes."

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao xianger came out of her room. She put on a brand-new simple and elegant dress and a pair of dark blue blouses. Without the constraints of men's clothes, her figure became more graceful.

She and Ning long out of the yard, toward the street.

Linhe City is full of waste.

Many officials are still counting the number of survivors in Linhe City and doing the work of rehabilitation. Several families have started to run funerals, but the funeral is also hasty. After all, all the spirits and spirits are gone, and there are no bones left behind.

"Sometimes I think, are we doing the right thing this month?" Zhao xianger suddenly said: "I stop Mrs. Bai because it's the territory of the state of Zhao. If she succeeds, the seal in my name will never be lifted, and you are mostly out of self-protection. Without our help, the people in Linhe City should still live as ghosts and enjoy the eternal beauty in this Kingdom of God."

Ning Changchang said: "the composition of every Fengdu kingdom is full of people's lives. If it really makes her huge, it will cause countless wars in the future. What's more, her mythological logic is wrong. Even without us, it will collapse sooner or later."

Zhao xianger said, "but do they know? Will they thank us? "

Ning Changjiu whispered: "they are your people. You have made the right choice for them. That's enough."

Zhao xianger was silent for a while and said, "I didn't expect that you would still say something."

Ning long resentfully shut up.

They walked on the dark and silent street. Occasionally, almost other people lit up the long lost lights, and there were paper money floating on the ground. The cold wind brought a bleak whimper, and they could not tell whether it was the mourning of people or the whistling of the wind.

"What is your origin?" Zhao xianger couldn't help asking.

Ning Changjiu said, "I am the loyal people of your highness."

Zhao xianger pinched his arm and said, "don't try to muddle through, tell the truth!"

Ning Changjiu said with a bitter smile: "I have forgotten a lot of things. Now I am thinking of them a little bit. Maybe they are memories of previous lives."

Zhao xianger was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and said: "I know you are extraordinary, but I never thought that you are so extraordinary. The congenital spirit that you formed at the beginning can easily tear Mrs. Bai's boundary. Even if it is congenital restraint, I still feel incredible."

Ning Changjiu said: "maybe only in this way can we be your Highness's opponent."

Zhao xianger said, "although you are not very good, your talent and luck are really amazing."

"Your Highness, I'm flattered."

"By the way, what would you do with the letter of marriage if you won three years later?"

"Yes, of course... What if your highness wins?"

"You don't have to sound your tongue, and you don't have any illusions. I'll force you to read the apology letter, and then tear the marriage letter in your face and smash it in your face."

"Your Highness is so cruel."

While speaking, a voice suddenly rang out in the alley.

"Big brother, big sister-in-law!" A little boy ran quickly from the other end of the alley, shouting, as if throwing something in his hand, "I'll... I'll... Ah!"

As he spoke, he slipped and leaned forward. Zhao xianger held him in the air and asked, "what's the matter?"

The little boy named Ding Leshi stood still and fell on his knees again. He kowtowed his head and said, "I'm here to thank my elder brother and sister-in-law for saving my life."

Zhao xianger said in a cool voice, "no, and I'm not your sister-in-law."

Ding Leshi raised his head in dismay and looked at his beautiful sister's fierce face. Then he looked at his elder brother, who was half lowered. He thought that his father and mother were always like this when they were alive. They could not quarrel, but they didn't quarrel, and they felt weak. Then they were angry in vain.

Ding Leshi, while considering his address, untied the bundle in his hand and took out the two eggs, one for each. He kowtowed and said, "these are the last two eggs in my family, which can hatch chickens. I want to learn martial arts."

Ning Chang and Zhao Xiang'er look at each other for a long time. They all recognize the child's courage and temperament. But at a glance, they can see that he has no purple mansion spirit at all. How can he practice?

Ning long thought, or truthfully said: "your constitution is not suitable for practice."

Ding Leshi was stunned and said, "I don't want to cultivate immortals. I just want to learn martial arts."

Nowadays, ordinary martial arts tricks are vulnerable in front of even the weakest monks. Zhao Xiang'er shakes his head and says, "if you are just a killer with excellent martial arts skills and meet a character like Mrs. white bone, it's still useless."

Ding Leshi whispered and pursed his mouth. He didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, another girl came to the alley. Yingying bowed down, and her movements were meticulous. Zhao xianger knew her. She was the granddaughter of the city leader“ Do you want to learn martial arts? " Asked Zhao xianger. The little girl nodded hard. It's just that she doesn't have the same attitude. Zhao xianger wanted to refuse, but he saw Ning go to Ding Leshi for a long time, squat down to look at him, and said seriously, "it doesn't matter if you don't have talent. It's not that there's no precedent in this world for ordinary people to chop a monk with a sword, and if you're so polite, you'll be lucky in the future. Now that your parents are both dead, you can follow me. I'll find a way to arrange a reliable martial arts school for you, so that they can give you basic skills first. " Ding Leshi was stunned for a while. Although he knew that the elder brother was obviously weaker than the elder sister, he was also a fairy like figure. He was surprised. He was afraid that the other party would change his mind, so he knelt down quickly: "thank you, master!" Zhao xianger looked at the scene and frowned. She looked at the little girl and said, "what's her name?" The little girl said carefully, "Yan Shi." Zhao xianger asked again, "did you suffer?" Yan Shi had already made up her mind and firmly said, "I've eaten." Zhao xianger nodded and said, "then follow me." Little girl a Leng, vaguely understand what, but don't care, heart joy, immediately fell on her knees and called master. Ning long and Zhao xianger look at each other, eyes are full of competition means. Ning Changjiu said, "congratulations on Miss Zhao's good apprentice." Zhao xianger said, "so is Taoist Ning." Ning Changchang said, "why don't you make another agreement?" Zhao xianger also has this idea, way: "after a year, see who we have better vision, how?" Ning Changjiu said, "it's a deal." So the two little boys and girls who had just paid homage to their master were pitifully reduced to their competitive chips When Ning returned to his study, the night deepened. However, both Lu and Ning did not go to sleep. Ning was very interested in the story of the kingdom of God and was asking many questions about the landing. Ning pushed the door for a long time, offered the silver hairpin with both hands, and said, "don't insult my master." Lu Jia grafted the silver hairpin and nodded: "miss Xiang'er didn't embarrass you, did she?" Ning Changjiu said, "Miss Zhao and I are both reasonable people." Ning Xiaoling listened to the story, but she didn't want to tear down the elder martial brother. She grabbed the master's hand and asked, "who is more powerful, the king of hell or the Lord of the Twelve Gods?" Lu Jiajia explained: "according to the book, King Ming was one of the first gods to appear at the birth of the world. He was in charge of the death of all things, but I didn't know what disaster happened at that time. King Ming and several early gods fell down early, and their power was scattered in the world, and a small part was divided up by the predestined monks, Most of them are still floating between heaven and earth as ownerless things. " Ning Xiaoling nodded and asked, "what are the names of the twelve lords of the kingdom of God, except the rosefinch, Kongshi and sin king?" Lu Jiajia didn't want to talk about this. After all, the taboo is reasonable. But looking into Ning Xiaoling's eyes, she explained in a soft voice: "after the sin, it's baizang, the leader of the Kingdom, and after baizang, it's fufu. I dare not say too much about these existence. I'll tell you the legend of the two lords every day." Ning Xiaoling was full of interest and said happily, "the master is the best." Ning long listening to this sentence, inexplicably some jealousy. By the time Lu married her and finished some myths and legends about baizang and fufu, it was midnight. Ning Xiaoling was a little sleepy. Lu Qijia stroked her forehead, put her on the couch and tucked her in. When she wants to go out, Ning Changjiu suddenly stops her. "What's the matter?" Lu said softly Ning Changchang said: "I dare to try to heal my master."... (* Note on Yu ā n) (help)
