She Is Not a Witch

More than twenty years ago, the Xiangyu School.

The wooden building made of toon wood is still strong, but the smooth corners and textures show that the building has been around for a long time. This is a house in the back mountain, and it is mostly used for the elders of those sects who like to live in cleanliness.

The light yellow plank road is paved in the shade of the trees, leading to the outside world. A young disciple is sitting on a chair in front of the wooden house, flipping through the books in his hands, quite leisurely, occasionally looking outside, thinking that today is the time to change shifts .

It was the afternoon, and there were occasional birds chirping in the forest, and the bright sunshine on the body made people sleep.

Suddenly, the disciple who was flipping through the book stopped his fingers and looked up at the plank road. At some time, there was a figure in a red dress on the plank road. The style of his clothes was very different from that of the East, but it was more like the one popular in the West. style.

"May I ask who you are?" Looking at the sudden visitor, the disciple stood up slowly after being surprised, and unconsciously touched the scabbard beside him.

Before the woman in the red dress could reply, an old voice came from inside the wooden house.

"Don't be nervous, this is my old friend, ahem." He coughed again, as if he was not in good health.

After hearing the old man in the room speak, the disciple's expression also relaxed.

"Yes, Patriarch Qing Yu." As he spoke, he made way for the woman to enter.

When passing by him, the woman smiled at him, as if expressing kindness.

With the creaking sound of the wooden door, and then closing, the wooden house became quiet again. The woman in the red dress went up to the second floor and saw the old man on the hospital bed.

"Sorry for calling you here so presumptuously." The old man leaned against the head of the bed, his long gray hair scattered in front of him. swordsman.

"It's nothing, it's you. The situation is not very good now." The woman shook her head and sat on the chair beside the bed.

"My own situation is clear, I'm afraid it won't be long." He shook his head.

"However, I don't have too many regrets. I have done everything that should be done. Jinhua is also a good child. There will be no problem in entrusting the Xiangyu faction to her in the future."

"It's true. Although I don't walk around much in the mountains, I can feel that the environment is not bad. The younger generation are very hardworking and get along very well." The woman in the red dress answered.

"What about the new kid, Chi Wu wrote to me saying, she is very special, let me pay more attention, but you also know about my situation."

"That child..." The woman in the red dress thought of the girl she saw a few days ago. She had a pair of exceptionally clear eyes, and she also carried a little lightness on her body.

"It should be about the same as me."

"Oh, so Chiwu also guessed right, haha."

"You Xiangyu faction are really lucky, you can meet such good luck sitting at home." The woman in the red skirt responded with a chuckle.

"Haha, that's not it, haha...cough." He laughed and coughed again.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, it must not be just a trivial matter if you let me come this time." The woman in the red skirt said. …

"Yes, actually I was a little hesitant about this matter, but thinking that I don't have much time, it's better to find someone to solve it. After all, the face of our generation is still there. It’s not so convenient to go out and find someone.”

"Hehe, so let me run errands." The woman in the red skirt said with a teasing smile.

"I remember that you were also a very free and easy person when you were young. Why do you think so much when you are old?"

"I can't help it. When I was young, I felt that I was omnipotent. I led my juniors to defeat all factions in the sword fight in the red building. At that time, I felt that I was really amazing. But now, old and frail, I have a lot of pride and ambition. It's gone, and I can only rely on some scheming and planning to make a long-term layout."

"Last year, Junior Brother Gui Yuan from Guanxing Mansion came over and told me about some strange things in the palace. If it is not necessary, I will not talk about such trifles."

"Then Junior Brother Guiyuan passed away not long after returning to Guanxing Mansion. Although part of the reason was the change of heaven and earth, which caused our generation to lose all our cultivation and weaken our bodies rapidly, I think that with his body at that time, he would not have passed away like this. quick."

"So then I paid more attention to it, and asked people to inquire about it one after another, about the palace, and about the interior of the Star Observation Mansion."

"You also know that Guanxing Mansion is closely related to the dynasty, and there are many clan disciples among them. Although Junior Brother Guiyuan is the elder of the sect, there are some things that he doesn't know. He said it clearly, so I guess he wanted to tell me in secret. "

"Later, I probed and felt that the water was getting deeper and deeper, and the royal family was very afraid of this. If exposed, I am afraid they will severely suppress the Xiangyu faction."

"So, you stopped?"

"Yes, but in the end there were a few clues."

"So, you want me to investigate this clue for you, don't you?" The woman in the red dress was thoughtful.

"That's right, the clue is related to His Majesty Chifeng. You are both goddesses, so maybe there is a connection between you."

"That's how you look up to me." The woman shook her head.

"Although we are indeed different from ordinary people, we are not much better now. Before we fully recover our strength, we will not be much stronger than practitioners of the same level. The strength of the royal family is strong, and we can easily mobilize a large number of masters to siege. I'm afraid it's hard to resist."

"Well, yes, so I don't ask too much, you just go and inquire carefully, after all, this matter is too important cough cough..."

"His Majesty Chifeng lived in seclusion after the changes in the world. Before, I thought that he should be in retreat to recover his strength, but now it doesn't look like it, because with His Majesty Chifeng's heart and habits, he will not let the dragon's veins go. Let it slowly deviate, this kind of thing is often the easiest to correct at the beginning, and when the deviation is far away, it will become more and more troublesome and difficult to recover."

"Perhaps Chifeng-sama also has an idea. In the past, a witch complained that Chifeng's pipe was too wide, and everyone felt very restrained in the east." The woman in the red dress shook her head.

"Maybe this time, Lord Chifeng wants to let go, and see if the dynasty can find a way to deal with it."…

"However, just as you said, if this was Chi Feng's own idea, the royal family should not be so secretive. There may be some accident."

"I'll take a trip for you later, but the result is hard to guarantee."

"Thank you very much." Saying that, the old man on the hospital bed heaved a sigh of relief.

"That's it. I'll make some preparations and leave in a few days." After speaking, the woman in the red dress stood up, walked down the stairs slowly, and left the secluded wooden house.

Four years later, Yanggu Mansion.

This is a remote island county located in the northeast of the Yellow Sea. It faces the Sea of ​​Storms in the east, the Yellow Sea as clear as amber in the west, and the insurmountable mountains in the south. Most people would not choose to take this road. They would rather take a boat on the water, cross the Yellow Sea, and arrive at Hedaizhou in the Central Plains.

There is little vegetation on the rolling hills and canyons, mostly red soil and rocks out of the ground, which are very dry and hard. In a leeward valley somewhere, there is a green lake, and there are gatehouses and buildings beside the lake. It is a small town with few people in the world.

On the clear lake, two women were rowing a boat, picking lotus seeds in the water, and the two were talking incidentally.

"The harvest of nasturtiums in this pond is not good." A woman in a green dress said. She had long black hair with pearl hairpins behind her. She was very beautiful, with a refined temperament far away from the world.

"There is no other way, Sister Qingying. After all, the breath of dragon veins is getting less and less, and even the lotus in the water has withered a lot." Another woman behind the boat smiled sweetly, and her appearance was even more beautiful than that of the companion at the bow. A certain degree of enchantment.

"Sister Suqin seems to be still sleeping and hasn't gotten up to do anything." As she spoke, the woman leaned on the side of the boat, gently circling the water with her hands, feeling a burst of coolness and comfort.

"Would you like to go look for her, anyway, I'm getting tired of you staying here with me." The woman named Qingying at the bow of the boat said with a smile.

"Ah, actually, I'm a little afraid of sister Suqin, because every time she catches her, she will educate me for a long time." The woman at the back of the boat was a little discouraged.

"Hehe, it's not because you were too naughty in the past and caused trouble everywhere that Suqin took extra care of you."

"I can't help it. My ability is like this. I can't help but attract other people's attention."

"Now you, you should be able to control it pretty well." Qingying continued.

"Um."

"Then let's go and have a look. It's also good to go out for some activities. It just so happens that the red building sword fight is about to start recently, Luo Jing should be very lively."

"Can I participate in the red building sword fight?" The woman at the stern suddenly had an idea.

"This...Although Suqin didn't say clearly that we couldn't participate, according to the usual practice, it's better not to disturb this kind of competition between mortals. After all, this is an opportunity that many people have never had in their lives." Qingying pressed her chin lightly, recalling previous experience.

"That means, I can go." The young woman at the stern became slightly excited.

Qingying shook her head helplessly, "It's not impossible for you to go, but you still have to be careful, don't steal the limelight too much, accept it when you see it, don't take the first place, and it's better to set an identity, don't be too sudden. "...

"I know, let me think about which faction has a style similar to mine."

"Mirror Flower Shuiyue School, Hongchen Magic Workshop, Tianxin Liuxian Palace..."

"Just 'Red Dust Magic Workshop', this one is more casual, and it matches your temperament." The two of them were talking, rowing the boat, and gradually entered the depths of the lotus pond.

Half a year later, the sword fight in Chilou ended, and the winners climbed Yuzhang Mountain to go to the feast of burning tails and transforming dragons.

"Excuse me, Miss?"

"This is my invitation card." A woman in black and white gauze took out a gorgeous invitation card with her name and origin written on it.

"It turned out to be Miss Yin Miaoxin, I'm sorry." This woman who won the top few places in the Chilou sword fight is now known to everyone in Luojing. open the way.

"Miss Yin Miaoxin, you can take the white jade dragon horse on the back mountain directly to the top of the mountain without having to trek." He continued to introduce patiently.

"Oh, can I go directly in a carriage? I thought I would be like those students." Yin Miaoxin's eyes were watery, with a smile in them, and a charm in them, making the row of red scales at the foot of Yuzhang Mountain The halberd guards couldn't move their eyes.

"It's not the same. After all, the Chilou sword fight only happens once every ten years, and only the top few are taken. Those students with hundreds of students are naturally different."

"Thank you." After finishing speaking, Yin Miaoxin, led by the guards, went to the back mountain to take the free carriage that went straight to the top of the mountain.

During the banquet, Yin Miaoxin sat next to Jie Zhuyan, looking at the opponent she met in the competition, the two whispered, she had a good impression of this girl who relied on her own efforts and accumulated experience in life and death to fight .

That's how people are. It's easy to admire those who have talents that they don't have. If Yin Miaoxin faced an opponent who also relied on peerless talent to advance easily, she might not have given up so easily. But for Xie Zhuyan, she On the contrary, I was very happy to lose, and there was nothing unpleasant about it.

"The emperor is coming." Suddenly Yin Miaoxin said to Xie Zhuyan beside her.

"Can you also know this in advance?" Xie Zhuyan was a little surprised, she was just a woman from a remote place in the countryside, and she had always been a little uncomfortable and restrained with the extremely prosperous Luojing.

"Well, yes..." As she said, Yin Miaoxin turned her eyes to the side of the banquet, where two girls came holding hands, one of them was Princess Xiao Yubing, familiar to everyone, but the other was dressed in white. The girl with silk and gold yarn is unknown to outsiders.

"she is?"

Now it was Yin Miaoxin's turn to be surprised and surprised, and then the girl turned her head just in time, and the eyes of the two met together, both a little surprised and curious.

Although the bystanders didn't know what happened in between, the two actually recognized each other's identities. They were by no means ordinary mortals, but immortal witches with special powers.

The banquet ended in a lively atmosphere. Yin Miaoxin and Xie Zhuyan toured the scenery of Yuzhang Mountain and walked down the mountain until they parted.

"See you next time, sister Zhuyan, if you have time, you can come to Yanggu Mansion to find me." Yin Miaoxin waved to Xie Zhuyan who was not far away, and then the two walked to different streets.

After Xie Zhuyan left, Yin Miaoxin did not leave directly, instead she looked at Yuzhang Mountain in front of her with interest. …

‘Sister Suqin’s aura is vague, and the royal family canonized another witch as the Canary Witch. Is this trying to replace her? Or on purpose. '

'Forget it, it's really troublesome to think about these questions, why don't you just ask Sister Suqin directly. ’ Saying that, her figure disappeared into the night.

Two hours later, it was already late at night in Shenlong Hall.

It was extremely quiet here, and there were only a few huge candles burning in the empty hall, making a slight sound.

At some point, a court lady came to the outside of the hall and stopped the guards of Shuolong.

"Who are you, why are you here late at night?" the Shuolong guard frowned and asked sternly.

"I'm here to deliver some food to the people in the palace." The maid was carrying the basket, her eyes were shining with a strange brilliance, which was very moving.

"Your Majesty said that it's rare to have another year's tail-burning feast, so it shouldn't be too weak." She explained again, letting the guard in front of her look calm down a little. , but it will not be too harsh, after all, Chifeng once raised His Majesty.

"You can just put the food box here, and we will send it in later."

"Oh, is that so? Is it really not possible?" The maid's voice was so soft that the guards outside the palace were a little swayed.

"Of course not...it's not impossible." The captain of the guard slowly changed his voice as he spoke, his eyes seemed to sink into the illusion, and then slowly moved out of the way.

"Thank you then."

After finishing speaking, the court lady smiled and picked up the bamboo basket food box, and walked slowly into the Shenlong Hall, but there are more than one checkpoints in this hall, and some are even locked with huge and heavy stone doors. It took her a long time time to enter inside.

Stepping into this somewhat icy hall, the maid's eyes immediately filled up a little more when she saw the woman in the gorgeous dress sitting at the end, feeling extremely sad and sad.

"Sister Suqin~" she called softly, then walked over quickly.

The woman sitting next to the xylophone looked up, and when she saw the court lady approaching, she had a smile on her face.

"It turned out to be Ningyou, I didn't expect to come in and see me now." There was a bit of surprise and nostalgia in Suqin's words.

"It's me." The witch, whose pseudonym was Yin Miaoxin, and whose real name was Ningyou, crouched in front of Suqin, hugging Chifeng, tears streaming down her face, as if she was mourning Suqin's encounter with such a thing.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, it won't look good if you cry any more." Suqin lifted the girl in her arms, and then carefully wiped away her tears.

After Suqin comforted her for a while, Ningyou slowly raised her head, there was a lot of confusion in her eyes.

"Why did sister Suqin encounter such a thing, that emperor is too despicable."

"Despicable, maybe, as an emperor, you really need to be ruthless." Suqin recalled the once young prince in her mind.

"Sister Suqin doesn't hate him?" Ningyou was surprised by Suqin's answer.

"Well, it's a little annoying, because he's not as cute as he was when he was a child." Suqin said, twirling her hair lightly with her fingers.

"But, he actually imprisoned you, really...really..." Ningyou couldn't find enough vicious words for a while. …

"Okay, okay, I know Ningyou is very angry, but let's not talk about it today." Suqin said, opened the food box Ningyou brought, and then lifted the cage inside.

"It seems that this year's Burning Tail Banquet is very rich." Suqin put the dishes on the table one by one.

"Could you tell me about the scene at the Tail Burning Banquet? I heard that a young child came."

At this time, Ningyou had no choice but to stand up and tell Suqin what she had seen and heard at the Burning Tail Banquet, including the newly-appointed Canary Witch, Luo Lan.

"Lorraine, Lorraine Hill, her name is easy to guess, so it should be the same person." Suqin picked up a small pastry and put it in her mouth to taste.

"Does Sister Suqin know her?" Ningyou was curious.

"It's considered acquaintance. When Tides came here to play, she told me that she should be a sister who has just awakened."

"Hey, so it's the witch from the west, but I thought it was from our side."

"The difference isn't that big. Look at Fei Ying, doesn't she often run on both sides?"

"Feiying, she is quite special. She doesn't seem to be called by this name now. It seems to be called 'Lei Feili...' or something. The transliteration of Xixi's name is very strange."

"Speaking of which, Concubine Ying hasn't seen her for many years, and she clearly said that she would come to Yanggu Mansion to play."

"Feiying, she should be recovering from her injuries in recent years. I'm sorry for her." Suqin sighed, and then talked about the past few years.

At that time, Fei Ying, who was Lei Fei Lika, tried to enter Yuzhang Mountain to check, but was discovered by the secret guards, and was besieged by hundreds of dragon riders. Concubine Ying suffered a lot and almost died. Fortunately, she left at a critical moment and saved her life in the end.

"On the contrary, you, with your convenient ability, came in without anyone noticing. Maybe today is special. When the burning tail banquet was held, many personnel were mobilized to protect the royal family in the banquet."

Then the two talked a lot until it was almost dawn.

"It's time to leave, Ningyou." Suqin leaned on the woman on her lap.

"Sister Suqin, why don't you go with me? Why do you stay here? Now you have no power, it's too dangerous."

"I can't leave easily. Although I don't have much strength, after all, I am a witch of dragon veins, and I can suppress dragon veins by nature. As long as I stay in this central place, I can guarantee general stability." Suqin shook her head.

"But, the emperor treated you like this." Speaking of this, Ningyou became angry again.

"Okay, don't mention it anymore." Suqin shook her head.

"I watched him grow up since he was a child. Maybe I cared too much for him, which made him very depressed and uncomfortable. As a king, he has to live in the shadow of others."

"Tades also advised me not to pay too much attention and try to let go, but I didn't listen to it at that time. Now that I think about it, I really did something wrong."

"Sister Suqin, your temper is too good." Ningyou couldn't help being angry, but she didn't know what to say.

After a while, seeing the sky getting brighter and brighter, Ning You finally stood up.

"Let me give this bead to Sister Suqin. In case of danger, Sister Suqin can use it for self-defense. Its effect is to produce some illusions. Except for other witches at the top level, I don't think anyone will be able to notice the abnormality."…

"Then thank you Ningyou." Suqin still took it.

Time passed by suddenly, and when Shen Longdian changed suddenly, it was already more than ten years later.

Because the wayward and surly prince broke into the main hall, all kinds of organs were activated, and the apse was in chaos. At this time, several royal masters who were sitting in charge had to take action. In the end, Chi Feng fell in a pool of blood, and there was a dead silence.

Just as the guards in the palace rushed to notify the emperor, a small boat floated away from the small river at the foot of Yuzhang Mountain, and sailed down the Buye River to an unknown distance.

After a long slumber, Suqin opened her eyes, the darkness in front of her eyes disappeared, and the canopy woven with bamboo appeared in her field of vision.

"here it is?"

"You're awake." A familiar soft voice came from the bow, as gentle as the mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River. After speaking, a woman in a white dress leaned into the black-covered boat and stroked Suqin's forehead with her fingers. The appearance is delicate, but exceptionally beautiful.

"Where is this?" Suqin sat up slowly, feeling her body was still weak.

"Is this here? It's Sulan Island in the south. It's far away from Luojing. Don't worry, no one will come after you." She helped Suqin up, and the two slowly walked out of the low cabin and came to the bow.

The drizzle is like silk, and there is cool water vapor in the air. The boat slowly moves forward in the water waves of this ancient Qingshi town, passing by small bridges.

"Why am I here, wasn't I still in Luojing before?"

"You don't have to think about these things, and you can rest for decades with peace of mind." Although the woman in the white skirt spoke softly, the meaning seemed a little tough~www.readwn.com~ Huh, you become stricter Already. "Suqin smiled wryly.

"I can't be strict, or my last sister will be gone." Honghu in a white dress stood in the rain and held up a paper umbrella to cover the two of them. The scenery is full of pedestrians, and the calligraphy and painting on the paper umbrella have a special artistic conception in the rain.

"That's it, Suqin, it's time for you to let go."

"The kids are going to grow up and they have to deal with it on their own. You can't take care of them all the time."

"But what if they can't solve it."

"It can't be solved. When everything is over, don't you still have me? Besides, they are not as weak as you think. Life will always find its own way out."

"Um…"

Bells rang from the temple outside the Sulan Bridge, and the two stood in the misty mist and gradually disappeared at the end of the small river.
